learning

to watch

listen

discern moods

in the room

to stay

safe

alive

then in later life

still keeping safe

understanding

vigilant of

hyper observance

of being

over stimulated

fight or fight tuned

rarely relaxed

switched off

to just be

in the world

such is

the legacy

of children

not being

protected

made safe
