Suicidal Fetus
Long ago
Comets crashed into the Earth
Like sperm penetrating an egg
Giving the planet
Amniotic waters
Air and nutrients
To nourish the child
Of which we are each a cell
Heaven awaits us after our birth
But humanity gnaws on the cord
And kicks at the walls
Of our terrestrial womb
Like a suicidal fetus
Too busy killing our mother
Killing ourself
To reach beyond this plane
To know what could be
