birth of the puppyfish

should we do it under water
i'm asking
because it makes a certain amount of sense
but
it isn't necessary from my point of view

what is necessary
is
you

are you up for that

because the way i've got it pictured
[and, full disclosure
this was influenced by things i read
from raw home birthing]
i build this nesting environment
[it's some kinda chick instinct]
then
it's feeling like it's time

so

we make love

[i swear to god]
this works some kind of magic
because your seed is magic prostaglandins

then
or maybe during
you have a little nip of colostrum
healing
vitality building

and then
we bring him into the world, together

i don't want a hospital
hell
i don't want a doula

i want you

could you handle that
