A Continual Process

My lips feel the smoothness of the glass

as its liquid reward pours down my throat.

The nerves begin to loosen a little,

the fingers and the thoughts running

towards them, grow looser and faster,

as if they were sprinting towards an

unseen finish line. There is no prize

or ranking to be won at the end of

this particular race. The only thing

that remains is  knowledge learned

from a life lived as a new one readies

itself to be freed from the womb.
