To witness a birthing human
whole muscles that once in
the service of ending
are given over instead to
creation
can but provoke great change
a birth itself
each birth of one in fact a new
birth
and of all those touched by
it
all family, obstetricians,
midwives, porters, facilities staff
for in it is the growth
before one’s eyes
the growth of the world
and all of its potentials
the growth of the world
this our world
this pliable world
the growth of the world to
accommodate the life of another
the cock a trephine
boring for artefacts
the cunt a portal
a slice in space time
a rift between dimensions of
being and not
bringing head, body, limbs,
bringing life itself to bear
the vessel of the universe
stretching under the sheer
weight of existence that
writhes beneath it.
