---Orange without seeds---


Parent please tell us stories
Elders please tell us stories
Tell us about your past that was perfect
Tell us about your history
That is like an orange without seeds
Tell us how obedient you were
Of how each one of you were top of your class
Tell us of how hardworking you were
How you worked from dusk to dawn
Without standing to rest a while
Tell us of how voluntary you were
How you worked for free
And money was not the issue
Tell us stories that are impossible
But true
Because how dare you say our parents lie

They are perfect
Like a pure white wrapper
With no blemish
Like nose without mucus

Our parents
They were every thing they never could have been
They were everything we should be...
"Oranges without seeds"
