right out the gate this morning

                               rolling off his hip and shouldercheek to a warmed pillow onto his back involuntarily his hands went to his sidestucked them tight to his hipsfingers under them  which immediatelyhumoured him realising he did what he did

days earlier he called home

                               his mother confirmed that they did not swaddle him

thats what he asked

                         he failed to asknor did she say if they tied him up  which in all likelihood would have been a waste of time

he was reallyreally fat

                        breastfed

neighbourhood women aided his mother helped her keep up his nutrition

                                                                              assisted his sexuallywanton desire to suckle                                                           

later when he learned of his circumstances he joked that he hadat the ready a sixpak of wetnurses

                                                                                                          hence

there was no need to bind him  his body had

he didnt walk until after he was two

    he took her word for it

                              though

being the eldest changing his siblings diapers before he went to kindergarten he could not remember a time ever unwrapping them

unwrapped made simple to determine if they had wet themselves or pooped

 

    laying on his fingers humoured he remembered their firstborn daughter when the nurse brought her in to them  she was slightly agitated  apologised that their baby askew

she laid her at his wifes feet and quicklyefficientlyflawlessly swaddled her

he remembered how pleased she was when she handed their daughter to him

                                                                                    Thank you

standing  holding her  he promptlydeftly undid the swaddling

Please he asked inform the rest of the nurses that our daughter is not to be swaddled

when he randomly appeared at the nursery looking through the viewing windowconfirming she was all arms and legs he saw she was surrounded by a score of bassinets containing tightlyswaddled white pills capped pink or bluecontaining as he described them
