JodiAnn Stevenson

Postpartum



Drawn curtain day winding restless.
Cooing won't calm those crying

cradle pains - a side-wound slap.
Sleep teases with easy dreams,

nightmare halted breaths, going
under water in a vault -

and you and I wound tight against
the world, floating in the vast

expanse of black night -
both crying like babies.
