Joshua Keiter

It is probably true
in fact it is most
certainly true

having a child
brings you back to
your childhood

in sharper relief
see that pop star
playing the garden

for the hundredth time 
songs you used to
carry with you 

in cassette form
to elementary school
the first music 

you called your own 
turns out thousands
felt much the same

some much younger
than you sing along
since you know how

they feel you know
I may be crazy
how to pass it along
