Human beginnings?

A . . . . . . . brightness
. . . . . . . . . pierces
. . . . . . . . . cuts
. . . . . . . . . slices
the darkness

A . . . . . . . painful
. . . . . . . . . pressure
. . . . . . . . . sharp
. . . . . . . . . echoing
is. . . . . . . . forgotten
but always remembered

Life
         a burden
         . sometimes light
         . occasionally crushing
         . always pushing
         . forever demanding

Death
         an unknown
         . . . . . forever threatening
         . . . . . . . . . someday embracing.

14 June 1991
