![]() CellA Poem by Kate
I pray for better days
In my mother's womb As my father's sperm I swim like a diver A cell with a tail So miniscule In a vast land as a prey For a chemical array Of killers and cellular brigade Trapping me in the net Of biological threats I shed no tear and let The nucleus in the midst of my head Usher me toward an egg Whose membrane of Chocolate sweet Sundae I ram and screw threw In a frenzy lest I lose The game of speed and one attempt I pray for better days In a prenatal phase Tugging on the umbilical cord I kick and gulp uterus juice I am the winner Rudimentary and tiny nipper! © 2019 Kate |
