Modern Parenting

________________________________________________________________________________________________

The third person 
to board the elevator
from the ground level
wore cargo pants,
hiking boots with
knee-high socks,
an LA Dodgers sweatshirt
and baseball cap
 
Every exposed inch of his body
was covered with tattoos
 
The two other people
elevating to 
the rooftop parking lot
had carts full 
of groceries
 
The tattooed man
had only purchased
a large package
of Pampers
 
He held it between
his colorfully
tattooed hands
 
Below a big heart-shape,
a cute and happy toddler
was featured
on the package
