Womb by Kate Amoss

February 26, 2015June 26, 2017 Peter Bankson Poetry

It is hunger that drives me to fill the void
Ransacking cupboards for scraps of sustenance
Food lengthens my limbs and expands my girth
Like Alice I dream of rooms too small
Wondering as I push my foot up the chimney
Am I finally enough to be born?
