Return To the Womb

Come with me this very minute Go back to the womb right now Attach yourself to an umbilical cord Swing from four or more for security Stay warm inside the embryonic fluid Parade there where life begins again Swim there where people emerge as friends Take a flashlight... It could be slippery when wet Remember, the womb is a sacred place  Move cautiously in the dark or you might drown Don't make it your personal playground Take your maturity seriously before you leave Leave the same way you came Grow up and out of it when finished Make room for others less fortunate Give birth a second chance.. a place for growth (a womb with a view would be nice) Remember your happy place remains Stay in touch with it...but not too much
