The inny’ s outty
I have brought forth humans
From the milky goo of men
Through a door less than 4 inches wide
I am one tough
I must confide
I carry them
I care for them
I cry for them
I console them
I am their everything
And they are mine
From now
Till the end of time
To be their protector
Their emotional reflector
Their existence erector
I provide them
The life they lead
I was the receiver
Of the seed
I am the giver of all they need
To succeed
They say I am physically weak
That I am meek
But in truth
I am a hardcore life-giving freak
To go through
The pain
The weight gain
The hormonal ride
Driving me insane
Yet in the end I reign
With child in hand
Forging a life in this land
Once I was one
Now I’m two
A reborn human
A mother for you
Mostly fragile
Definitely feared
Nothing to mess with
We are to be revered
A warrior
Of the womb
The flesh factories
Who consume
The DNA
And provide
Another human for today
A fascinating show
To watch the beginning of a life grow
Led by a creature
I have failed to understand
For over half a century
Yet evicted me from my first home
And brought me to roam
Amongst all of you
A vile, putrid and clueless crew
I don’t blame her
She simply never knew
That I was comfy and content
And didn’t want to leave
Her l vent
But then again
It was a short-term lease with no extension
Oh, and did I mention
The prick that kicked me out
Had on a mask and smacked my ass
Welcome to the world !
