EVERY CHILD IS AN ONLY CHILD

Every child is an only child.
Every road he walks, he walks alone.

Who can explain how an enchanted life happens
in a beautiful, terrifying, impersonal universe
where the sun rises and shines indiscriminately
and darkness surrounds every creature the same.

Who’s to blame when a child is born without legs
into a world designed for people who walk?
