I've been out of the gates for awhile now
pushing towards something bigger than me
bigger than my dreams, bigger than this belly
waddling maybe
connecting my life to some new someones
plugging into this bigness is big business
whatever history I knew, I am changed
will be transformed
before: teacherfrienddaughterchildsinglewomanselfishtalker
after: childwifemotherloverlistenerclotheswashermenderbathroomcleanerdishwashercook
This is what I wanted.
Funny to say it. Even funnier to become it.
