How Many
People want to hear a number
How many children do I want
I don't need to tell a number
It's not a number hunt
Children won't overfill the world
They increase capacity
When from my home their wings unfurl
They're raised to reciprocity
My wages make me work
The wages are fair
My children are my wages
A satisfying care
