Transition

The black ceiling closes down on me a spasm of pain rocks my whole being the world is no longer mine dreams has been crushed the black ceiling retreats fearfully back a woman is born of a girl the cracked mirror shamedfacedly reflects a bruised face questions passes through swollen lips but the creator is mute now He is gazing at a father's baby in his daughter's womb.
