The children come, resurrected and respectful on behalf of my need. No crying or pleading tantrum, evincing patience they had not in life. They remain liminal as if, could I reach them, unreachable, they might yet be held by fathers. I see them beseech while receding from any reach I may manage. One by one now they come, well behaved and pliant, when perforce I call, so that I may grieve. Link to comment
