BY ROSE EVANS
Rocked in the dark
the inch long man
swims in the warm.
Love watches him,
love once himself
small and unborn.
No sun for him
hard hands invade
his little room.
No breath of air
sharp blades destroy
him in the womb.
But not alone
his brother, lord,
companion, friend,
stays by his side,
and with him faces death,
shares his end.
