I Have Often Written About Death

I have often written about death, although living is as mysterious.

How miraculously we enter into this world, tiny yet too large for the tunnel we emerge through,
How we survive for months on the thin white liquid,
How we suddenly teach ourselves to turn over, nearly rolling off the beds our parents placed us on so carefully,
