love birth

it's taken so long for me to sit down and write story's birth...i have come to the conclusion that it can't be a linear story, it has to be in poem form, because that is who i am.  i am not a linear person that does things in order...

story

open
life
wet and fire
together
digging my feet
into the sides
of the
birthing tub
he opened
me up
flowed...
his cord
short
and strong
close to
my breast
he
lifted his head
and
came
up to meet us
like a
god
