first things

as night you will climb the skies
whispering disembodied winds
will lap your gaunt skull
as a foetus you will banish the first groping hands
your arms supine sharing my bed...a bed perhaps a womb...a coffin..
where nocturnal rites make noise like the first gravel.
your cry carrying the first flood at the larynx of dawn.
