I do n o t know where this came from. Her voice must have wanted to be heard ...

"Censorship"

The doctor pulled it out by its
feet, wet & wrinkled from its
passage, folded into a scrap
so impossibly tiny, it couldn't

possibly be alive.  Unfolding its
limbs, the doctor grew livid as
he saw its many imperfections:
frowning, he decided right then

& there to censor its breath:
I had no say so in the matter,
unconscious as I was under a
general anesthetic.  When I

awoke, he told me that she
had been born, still.  I looked
upon her sweet face, baptized her
with my tears & named her ...

                  Poetry.

(c) 2009, Karla Dorman (1/3)

Writing poetry is the equivalence of orgasmic birthing and it is lovely and sweet laced with some pain
