Short Incubator Poems

incubator day
children wait for eggs to hatch
one chick pecks away

teacher covers cage
six chicks emerge overnight
only one hold out

this egg never cracks
wise teacher takes it away
quietly alone...

Every child on our block got an Easter chick.
Except me. I got two of them.
My sister also got two, and an incubator.
They were young.
How long until we can get fried chicken? I asked my mom.
My sister ran off screaming....

I'm available--
exposed.
Caught in the crossfire
of handshakes and smiles. 
The smoke grips my lungs.

I cannot oblige. 
I will not oblige. 

So I dream.
I elope with restlessness
into the fluid incubator.
I build my own prison
where I can be free....

We were burning
When they were busy laughing, mocking!

our mental simulator is the incubator 
     of our physical illustration
          our mental perceptions of how events
               in our perceived physical world

are created by our inner most desires and cravings
     to be tested and mulled over
          before manifesting themselves
               in our physical world for final testing...

Nineteen-0-Nine World's

Fair in Seattle, a one

month old orphaned boy

was raffled off and someone

won, but nobody claimed him.


*The event was the introduction of an incubator for premature births. Unfortunately, the ultimate destiny of the child was still under investigation at the time, to-date, his whereabouts still remain unknown.

We all wanted feline female cat glasses in 1952.
We could get them with silvery rhinestones too.
I wanted them for sure, when I saw them later.
For in 1952 I was still cooking in an incubator.

These cat glasses were worn by each movie star.
We loved them so, they were glitzy from afar.
By 1962 they were no longer the thing to wear.
By then I was ten. Fashion at this age gave me not a care....

On the quiet night  as well as day
The sighted world is not as good 
For as right as the rains  fall 
The sun does dry those tears

I am in remorse but not embarrassed 
You see I have a blind man for a brother 
You see from the beginning  of his life he 
       could have been a another Steve Wonder

Birth premature
Placed in an incubator 
The sun does dry the tears
Of those eyes wetted fears 

As being  blind...

Some topics closed for the debater,
Not only 'Divine', 'Incubator;
For good eggs their silly layers can't hatch
For the premature babies to life catch!

Some issues defy a debater:
Whether a ship needs Navigator,
Crocodile-like the Alligator;
Terrorists like a Terminator...

To some arguments just say "later":
A waste of time writing a letter,
With the sun's heat rays farm soil wetter,
Without drugs the nursed sick much better....

Lying in the incubator amid her nursery ?
Tiny eyes fixated upon the light as gazing
Beyound this wall of glass; their little heart
Swaying soft purity while they stare; lovely
Such innocence entering into a brand new
World and reaching these, precious hands
Trembling with joy their Spirit recognizing
Love's touch; in this, the apple of life's eyes
Lifting them gently from birth's white pillow...
Whispering as cradling Beauty's kiss; a breath....
