The Looseness of Lips
Once they begin to flap without touch.
Flip and flapping back learned early...
And we adored them so much!
Once they were told twice to shut up.
And nothing could stop them.
Not even a spanking butt!
Then they began to get tight,
Disobeying and stubborn.
Making mommy think...
Of putting her own head in the oven!
Then one day,
The looseness of lips starts to calm.
When a twelve year old girl has a boy on her arm.
And daddy and mommy are looking quite alarmed.
Unbelieving they sit and pray,
Their daughter's baby isn't born...
Or an abortion is on the way!
And nothing is said about safe sex!
Gone into elusiveness is loose lips next regret!
