Dna

By fingers
in fist 
firmly constricted
you managed to 
form me in Yesterday

under the shower
scratched skin
invoked up to the surface
mine Today

Yesterday 
put a frame for life on Today
Today
buried Yesterday
in graveyard a birth was given for
Tomorrow

Terrified word
deranged stares at
reflection in a mirror

we'll never be able to
store in silence
that sound
of their blood
inside of us.
