who will write a magnificent metaphor to review
a seismic shift which impacted nuclear families
over past few generations then encapsule truth
in a poem 'Residents Within Titanic Struck Iceberg'...
an extended family had grandparents to help raise
grandchildren to impart love and wisdom a nuclear
family two parents although economics forced out
mothers into workforce to help pay necessity bills...
with falling worker wages governments tax totally
conned women feminists told had freedom to work
when earlier stay at home mothers had life quality...
time with children their friends with more money
finally with divorce separation pressure nuclear family
was nuked tragically solo mothers raising children alone...
