I dreamt we all caught the pregnants
It lasted for 9 weeks instead of 9 months
It changed everything
People spoke slower
Someone rubbed my tummy
No one cared who I voted for
For 1,512 hours everything slowly melted
I nurtured
You
Nurtured
Me
And that seed inside
It was weird
It was amazing
and
On the sixty-third day
The sun was a different type of warmth
Like a slow roast
Just a bit too hot
But not enough to head inside
The sweat dew fell from our brows
In unison
We bore a chasm that wasn’t there before
And as the dusk crawled to cover us
We didn’t know
About tomorrow
