Hymn to Phil by Kate Amoss

February 26, 2015June 26, 2017 Peter Bankson Poetry

When you were born

Time clotted like cream

Its pulse slowing, stopping

My limbs were petals unfolding

Exposing tender flesh

I dressed you gently

As a wound

My armor pierced

Greedily you sucked

My milk flowed.

Womb by Kate Amoss
