In germs of purity
We await our infinity
Faintly existent
Yet, illogically present
The fetus will cry
Begins to die
Outside the womb
Astride its tomb...
Time dims the light
Again the night
But time was never
And now...it's over...
To fight for purity, we chose
But germs must decompose
So pray to the Trinity
To give us infinity
Fold those coarse hands
But see the fine sands
Sift into our graves
Designing our staves
We die in our mystery
Our malignant crude history
And before we can run
....follow our sun
Our life is dying
But our nod is denying
That we've lived at all
Outside our skulls
And before we can ask it
They've nailed our casket...
(Do I try to infer,
That we never were?)

Dear Lia,
I was sort of late to visit but I did. I was really fascinated by this poem.
Outside the womb
Astride its tomb
Magnificent style. Keep the spirit and pen active Lia. Cheers.
