Petra Genetrix

Unpublished

In the corners of darkness

there is a whole

That opens up the earth’s womb

for life to evolve

outside her craters

we reach the edge of the cave

and come alive

to initiate a body of discovery

until the returning moment of time

to a woman’s womb

wet, dark and soft

where all of our lives is plasma flowing

in a protective mesh of flesh and bones
