No Children

Suffer no fools and they'll be no clapping back
Not the repeating hum of their questioning facts
Out of sight out of mind and don't speak lest I say
If they're anywhere near then they're just in the way

No children
To tug at your sleeve
No children
Absorbing need
No children
Right or wrong to concede

A legacy of mistakes to pass on to your next
The unbearable weight of their breath on your neck
A generation to seed all your mistakes to unpack
If they're missing good sense then it's time served they lack

No children
Questioning why
No children
To stand in when you die
No children
To measure your time

No children
Inheriting wealth
No children
If not them who else?
No children
Reflection of self

No children
Left to get bored
No children
To fall on your sword
No children
To cast all the blame
Shame

No children
Forgive is divine
No children
Regret eats your mind
No children
The persistence of time
