Labor Poetic Asides

 Labor of Listening

 

Young and newly married,

when I was around a group of moms,

inevitably they’d break out their birthing stores.

 

All of the moms had one or more

and were eager to share,

which I found slightly boring and annoying.

 

Now, I have two birthing stories,

I attempt to keep to myself,

for fear of birthing boredom.
