The sizzle, the hum
a sparkle then done
torched and tormented
love starts to run
Cut cords —
umbilicus lies
unintended
never truly mended
Scars grieve
still ~ bloodied
hearts leave
.
mine speak's
flesh
softly
rest
rain reversed not an inch
rivers overflowing oceans pregnant
reverence no more repercussions
roots losing their umbilicus
repercussions of acts committed wrongly
rightly who knows what is good
she stared at me like a blind
n i stared back at the roof of the
rain
Form:
Life giving womb, silent and sacred
mystical, blood red, embryo connected
cords from umbilicus, abstract limbo
unborn life, undiscovered, now growing.
Stanza from “Lexi’s Preconceived Womb”

you are above
so you descend to the water
on stiff legs
scrabbling down the scree
the tarn looks like mercury
spilled into the umbilicus
of the mountain
when approached
you see the mirroring clarity
where a captured sky
peers inward
from the sloping shale
you throw a pebble
into the water
the splash is small
but its echoing ghost
sinks much deeper
there is no comfort here
only the straining
guide ropes
of a tilting mind
a plunging edge
that tugs at your life
