For Entertainment Purposes Only

Count with me...
and feel your eyelids
grow heavy..8, 9, 10...sleep
Flap your arms
you're a rooster
crow at the sun...
Laughter howling,
Open your eyes
the audience is naked...
Embarrassed but peeking
Let's begin with a Past Life Regression:
Feel yourself falling
down and back in time,
past your labors and endeavors
back before your birth,
feel your cells vibrate
go deeper and remember...
Please speak tell us where you are?
Thick tongued with lisp:
"I'm lying near a pond...
there is a tree at my back
mountains in the distance;
the air looks
pristine and calm
I am on a blanket
made from something shiny and warm...
There is a buzz in my head as I talk, laugh and cry
with millions
sharing my heart in constant verse and song.
Oh my god I am a woman who is about to give birth...
Push so familiar as I press down
there is no pain to expect
the only hurt comes from knowing,
a haunting feeling
of emptiness
this little one about to be born
will no longer be within my soul...
Breathe,
push, harder
and he spills out from me as I squat
my hands raise him up
wiping vernix from his eyes, nose and mouth,
he wails 'I'm alive' with a newborn cry...
quietly I shush, coo, pressing
my abdomen to cradle him rocking.
I scoot with my 'glutes'
until we are in the water.
Washing, bonding I clench the umbilicus,
hand clamped while I reach for a salve;
a ancient hatred for knives waxes,
as the pungent oils eat
separating the cord to a floret,
my child will likely have an 'outtie.'
One more push for placental release.
Quietly I wait until deep he sleeps...
Then something floats in from overhead
I hear myself saying 'robo-med'
and we are all scooped up
transported inside a vessel that
flys fast above the sky
as the voices within
anxiously awaits our new star..."
OK softly now wake
remember everything clearly ,
feeling refreshed and invigorated ,
1, 2, 3 eyes open wide.
Hmm
Your past life has many implications...
as the audience cheers and applauds
stomping for an encore.

the word depth does not do this justice.
I loved the counting backwards then the multitude of building.
Loved the very end, your past has many implications....
I'm lacking in choice comment tonight forgive me for that... Brain is a bit loaded, ahh yes past implications....

Surreal, induced by chakra, or a product of very deep thought, this write is a unique combining of contemporary ideals, ancient wisdom and futuristic fantasy. You set the story up oh so nicely with the assistance of your trancendentalist. I found much humor here. Was the babe a birth, or a re-birth? |
