Death of an Immortal

Posted on August 31, 2011

Surrounded by this flood of blood,
Encompassing what I have become.
Baptized and bedamned, this fetid tide.
I, fetus, flushed with finality.
Delivered from womb to the tomb
I have lived this miniscule undeath,
For if one is not born, can one die?
An infant captured in infinity.
