The Bit

Its two thirty in the morning and

you dear, stumble to bed and put your

knees into my back.

-

I lie there next to you

for an hour

-

then get up and stand outside on the balcony

-

I can’t sleep

-

I piss

-

I drink water

-

I lie on the couch

-

I piss again

-

Its morning.  Its time to get

daughter ready for school

-

For the past 30 something weeks all I have been

doing is lying on the  couch and feeling

dizzy.

-

This is pregnancy

-

This is why I’d rather the stork

bit were true
