Song for Baby-O, Unborn
.
By Diane di Prima b. 1934 Diane di Prima
Sweetheart
when you break thru
you’ll find
a poet here
not quite what one would choose.


I won’t promise
you’ll never go hungry
or that you won’t be sad
on this gutted
breaking
globe


but I can show you
baby
enough to love
to break your heart
forever
