PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I can not afford to have a million children

so I adopt these poems I pen instead

in a quiet manner of speaking

I give birth

not from the body

so much as

from my creative head

and at times

such a lovely birth it is

in comparison to the uglier edges

around us

leading unto

the so mundane...................
