today is my son's moms birthday, march 31st. and he was born on march 25th, six years ago. i remember the exact moment that he was conceived. i can feel the backward arch of my upper body, my legs firmly grounded, and the power between them; a hot july night, an open window and rattling venetian shadows slicing the bed and our bodies into strobes. and quickly, if she's a she, if he's a he; maybe huxley, aurelius, stream, zoe, korea, blue, elan, york? all in a moment, this power charging through me into her smoothness and out into the far reaches of a new universe. what a release! i hear her soft moan, and he is on his way.
happy birthday hux mommy!
happy birthday hux mommy!
