what I think matters none
interests affect our evidence
will mislead you into drawing
false conclusions
skewed world view

Filling the sponge
with facts and acceptance and understanding
identifying everyone in family photos daily
every plant with their glorious colorations
functions of the mundane

He hangs on my words
as he hangs on my neck
safe in my arms
as the world is described
one feature at a time

His babbles
joined with smiling nods
Understanding
that love is
unconditional
