We must fear the process

of birth like death

it was

after all

the end of the only world we’d ever known

descends as we descend

the birth canal

twisting and writhing or ripped

violently

into almost certain death

original fear

is born in us

to be triggered and renewed

easily

as we writhe and curl

screaming

into some dear arms

the origin of fear is

the invitation to life

and though we do not remember

whispering fear of life

is in us

just

as much

as  desire

for love

over and over

we begin the struggle

into life

with every new turn on the

path

so meet unbelieving

yourself

screaming fear

yourself

with

sweet crooning love
