Beautiful Baby: Peace of Mind'' by. Kevin Mireles

She is 9 months
overdue.
Tossing and turn
rituals
every lunar sky.

Subdued
by her infinite
hallucinations
of giving birth,
a sleeplessness
is born behind her eyes.

Smothered
in silent pillows
remembering,
she conceives
how only his simple kiss
has ever felt right,

A kindred eclipse
of touching lips
becoming,
a teeny body.

A taste so sweet,
she could delve
in his pout
forever.
