Mother 11/03/2011 (Fukushima)

Mother.

Buckle loosened, your amniotic burden shifts,
Your taut flesh ripples and salty swells heave.
You groan and shudder, skulls crush and bones cleave.
Breathless, the blue red bloody unraveling begins.
Phobos, Deimos, Mars, sunrise, unquenchable fires,
Fissures, ruptures, the crushing pain torn lode.

Mother.
Your tears.
