It’s a tricky thing to get it right.
Pull it tight
Let it slide
Keep it consistent
Always consistent
I help her unravel snarled purple mess again
Straighten tangles
Lay smooth her twists and turns
“Try again, this time
don’t let go.”
Phone rings
Another tangle
Do I pull her tight?
Let it slide?
I take a deep breath
Keep it consistent
Always consistent
It’s a tricky thing
to get it right.
