Short C Section Poems

the snapping
turtle's tongue
hung dangling

as a glow worm
lit just enough
for to see

warm enough
for to be a meal
more than a little

death...

C r a z y  Cate just had a
   C-section. Crabby, she
      couldn’t control her moods.
         Catatonic one night, 
            careless me stole her cloaks!
               Can’t I be cutely flawed?
                  Couch became my man cave.


*Not for contest, just for fun*

Fear of failure, fear of rejection,
Fear of stupidity, fear of detection.
Fear of critics, fear of correction,
Fear of the A, and the B, and C-section.

Not frightened, but anxious,
I've made the connection.
Scared of what shows 
In the mirror's reflection.
Examine my soul
Hoping there's no rejection.
My chorus is lost 
Without constant direction....

Child Incubus

Wild baby forms in the womb
He has no name or original sin to speak of
Incubation time of the creature will be determined
Doctors treat all unborn humans like tumors
They must be extracted as such
Mother is sedated, removed from the action
C-section, clamp, close and done
Doctor is god at this moment
Mom is an unholy spectator on creation
Screaming, “What is it doctor?!”
It’s an incubus...

No pushing or breaking of water
It was a c-section that brought her
But this is about
What wouldn’t come out
A poop just as big as my daughter!

Perhaps it was pain medication
To clog up and cause constipation
Nurse said I must show
They won’t let me go
Till poop- there it is- defecation!

Determined, I pulled an all-nighter.
That turd was a hell of a fighter.
And then with my tush,
Turns out I did push!
And poof! I was seven pounds lighter!...
