A Blurt after Birth
Suddenly consciousness was my everything
as space and sounds and love took shape
narrow and sensible. I can live here.
But outside--outside
the world does such strange things
speeds of light strange
holes on the stars
hidden from me by a blue sky like a frosted window.
Why is the world I can know filled with such unseen strangeness?
Why was I born here?
What is this place?
How is it really shaped?
