That Eternal Now
Sometimes in lovemaking, I was only
partially there. My mind darted
between before and after. I felt the rhythm
of my husband's affection but saw images of
what had been and what might be.
Finally, he drew me into the present,
into that eternal now where all of creation
places itself in service to the making of new life.

Horny Mother-to-Be
I’m one horny mother-to-be
It’s nothing that I could foresee
Men say that I glow
But all that I know is
My tits are now something to see
It’s nothing that I could foresee
Men say that I glow
But all that I know is
My tits are now something to see

Habits of Life
The new life growing in me is at the mercy of how I care for myself. If I smoke, my baby smokes. Since I think she’s too young to make such decisions, I decided to stop smoking. I hope my future daughter doesn’t mind that I replaced that habit with a habit I began at age 12 while lying on my stomach watching a couple kiss on TV.

The Life That Grows in Me
In shadows cast by choices we regret,
A love affair that we should not have known,
Yet in my womb, a new life is set,
A testament to seeds of lust we’ve sown.
Though the path I took was not of grace,
That night filled with fucking now tastes like a dream.
Yet in your existence, I find a new place,
In every heartbeat I hear your joyful scream.
Though the love that caused this life was not meant to be,
My love for the life that grows in me,
Now shines in my eyes, pure and free.
A love affair that we should not have known,
Yet in my womb, a new life is set,
A testament to seeds of lust we’ve sown.
Though the path I took was not of grace,
That night filled with fucking now tastes like a dream.
Yet in your existence, I find a new place,
In every heartbeat I hear your joyful scream.
Though the love that caused this life was not meant to be,
My love for the life that grows in me,
Now shines in my eyes, pure and free.

Conversation Between Friends
You’re not showing yet?”
“No, it’s only been about ten weeks,” Lauryn said. “The doctor said my baby bump might start to show in a month or so.”
“I was reading an article called “Lucky 13.” It said around that same time I could expect my breasts to get bigger and my nipples to get browner. Sounds like fun.”
The two laughed. A few were sitting at the bar but it was early afternoon so tables were empty.
“I’m so excited for you,” Megan said.

Beginning to Show
Therefore whatever you have spoken in the dark
will be heard in the light
Is it my imagination or
am I beginning to show?
Was it something I ate?
Regardless, there is new life inside of me.
The sperm and egg embody nature’s purest desire for
continued life even when they came together at the
betrayal of others. Does our sin lessen
the weight of new life?
God, our desires were so strong!
Surely we weren’t expected to resist.
Still, how can I end what has begun?

The Ballad of Daisy-doo
Butterfingers
with Daisy-doo thumbs
couldn't catch a thing
when she was young
A few things changed
when Daisy grew
some bad boys taught her
all she knew
They took her swimming
down by the creek
when she dried off
she couldn't walk for a week
She put on weight
like a great balloon
and the Doc said
triplets coming soon
She wouldn't name pa
as Josh or Jim
and Jack was away
so it wasn't him
She learned that love's
a slippery wish
and when you're up the creek
you better catch a...

Letter to the Father of My Baby
I read your email. I assumed you’d be grateful for “time we had together.” Unfortunately, like you, I will “carry memories of you for the rest of my life.”
My lawyer ____ _______, with _______Law Group recommended paternity testing so there’s no question of parental responsibility. I’ve scheduled that for next week. Fortunately, I have the perfect specimen. After our night together I threw my clothes in a corner of my bedroom in disgust. I’ve not wanted to touch them, so they remained there undisturbed. The clinic said that sample would work so there’s no need for you to do a...

fecund
Your heart is full of fertile seeds, waiting to sprout.”
—Morihei Ueshiba
a forest full of fertile flowers fruiting,
whose verdure feeds the vine with seed and grain,
whose cozy haunts are shelter from the looting
of predators that intercept the rain.
a river pregnant with aquatic creatures,
whose merriment reflects the harvestsong
of fishermen who revel in her features,
as joyfully to sea she trips along.
a man surrounded by his wife and children,
whose quiver swells with lush fecundity,
whose geniture is kindled...

Fear and Trembling
The life inside of me was
formed in fear and trembling.
The fear is of death,
losing myself in tangles of
flesh and conflicting emotions.
The trembling points
toward a thousand deaths
still to be shared on other nights.
formed in fear and trembling.
The fear is of death,
losing myself in tangles of
flesh and conflicting emotions.
The trembling points
toward a thousand deaths
still to be shared on other nights.

DECEIVER, SEDUCER
He was her deceiver;
she was his believer,
past any retriever,
and became receiver
of seed, then conceiver
She became producer
of child by seducer,
her good name's traducer.
