a word to the wise:

if one aspires to advocate, one is wise to watch the baby.

the baby is the perfect advocate,
advocating directly for their own needs.

(may all our babies’ needs be met,
directly)

one is wise to meet the baby’s needs, directly,
knowing where a baby with unmet needs is liable to be led.

only the wise know this.
(who is listening?)

who hears the baby’s advocacy and jumps to meet the baby’s needs?

only the wise.

(and the wise are very few)

(maybe only you are listening,
wise one)
