Scarves
Dad would be the frayed ends
 Showing how worn down he is
 How “at the end of his rope” he is
 
 Mom would be the holes
 How they were “thrown in”
 For “decoration,” the weaver said
 But were picked at constantly
 Until they gape, stressed
 
 My brother and I are the threads
 We weave and connect
 Passed back and forth
 Unimportant and unnoticed,
 But always there
