I Remember31
I remember the place before I was born
Now I am born.
I gather information and put it in a basket
over my head.
I cut a path for myself through this life.
I go out to the edges and back to the centre.
I put my vision out into the world.
I let go of the results.
And return back to the place
Before I was born.
