Poetry
Stillborn

a very ,very early one.

Words that have no meaning
even to the ghost that speaks them,
shadows of youth
lost in what might have been.

Sons of the Workers
Daughters of the F lesh,
even the dreams die
before they are born.

Stillborn Babies smiling at me
Stillborn Babies talking to me.

This makes me think of the movie Eraserhead, but I mean that in a good way. It's stark and confusing but the wordplay is compelling. It makes me want to linger and mull it over.
