It made me think of

dark theater
mother's shushing louder
than baby's fussing

Hi Ellajam, I like this piece, is it well known or from a well known poem, I googled it just to be informed, 'When babies cry in pain it usually means gas'... Which was helpful but not the answer I was looking for.
Thanks for reading,
Mark

Ha, if nobody's written it before I guess it's mine. It's just what came to mind when I first read your piece. When I read tiger's I decided to post it. I love googling pieces of poems, often end up somewhere interesting, preferably not colic.
