Stillborn

Words that have no meaning

even to the ghost that speaks them

shadows of youth

lost in what might have been.

We are What?

 

Sons of the workers

Daughters of the flesh,

even the dreams die

before they are born.

 

Stillborn babies talking to me

Stillborn babies smiling at me.

The enigma of being human, eh? You capture that, elegantly and sadly, in this piece.
