as it was, now
Robert Paul Cesaretti
 
take it to the end of your life     and drop it off       given back, let it go    
but taken, too     you know how it is
the world welcomed you      when birthed      you will see that     
and what calls you forth, now
having called you back, again and again     
so you lived past it        and entering, you go
born you lived, filled in what was not      that was then taken     
and dying, you come out of it       life, that is       and now you are taken          and it goes
begin forever
