she gave him a jigsaw puzzle for his
birthday
a fabulously
coloured onethousand piece hummingbirds puzzle
he had no where to build it
had cats
curiositycats
curiosity destroys things inadvertently without
blame they are animals guided by their
innate gifts
unlike
human beings
who
endup having to make excuses for theirs
not he
punished as a boy for saying You can blow me
parents threw a tizzy
until
he informed them what blow meant
How do you know that? they demanded
his curiosity would always outstep
outdistance their bizarreneed
to protect him
tha occurred to him
before it
occurred to them
a funny smile curled inside his
mouth he did not share it
Yacant protect me
his words hit like hammer blows
he was the eldest six siblings
he had a sense
I can understand why you might
But you cant Tha doesnt diminish
you in my eyes
Yajust cant
An Ill not pullback on being who I am
If I coud apologise I woud
I cant
Was a really beautiful puzzle
