Hi Folks,
A strange one I've been working on. I'd love your reactions and C&C, as
usual.

There are no edges here.

"I scatter my mosaic" - Gary Blankenship
My mother feeds me fear
through a tube inside her womb
Her darkness is a cushion for my soul
My father sings in anger
His vibrations mesh together with my skin
We hum this tune
My sewing bones will learn
Through the nautilus of living
I hum my father's tune
Shadows glimmer from before
Each time since big bang broke
we breathed in shadows from before
We whistled in the dark
Each time since bang I breathed
Now I'm lodged in pulsing portal
and I whistle in the dark
My fingers grip the slippery cord
I deliver in flash-spastic
in a raucous rush of blood
Fingers slip their grip
Underneath roaring sun masks
their faces wait mosaic-ly
I recognize my children
Remember my parents
Their faces watch from the past
In the present pattern scattered in the past
We worship coins poised in the sky
Heaven's medallions
We click prayer sticks
Chip fool's gold
Knock on wood
Click prayer sticks
Chip fool's gold
Knock on wood
My mother feeds me fire
My father sings in tongues
Now my children are my parents
and my father sings on fire
and we all are me my self
and my parents are my children
and our darkness is a cushion for myself
My mother feeds me fear to feed her self
