Womb For Rent
The womb is delightful
it's nice and soft and warm
the food is free
and there are no dishes to wash
it's a little cramped sometimes
but nothing I can't handle
sometimes I pose for pictures
I bob and tumble
I suck my thumb
they say I am past due
and they may have to take me
still I resist
I've seen that canal
and it's a slippery slope
I wish they would leave me alone
I have everything I need in here
still I know it's inevitable
the worst is coming
I can feel it
it's called birth.

There are times when I think we would all rather be back inside.
