Squirm
when I looked
last at
my arm
there was a small
bump
but the bump
grew larger
a dark shadow
moving inside
tadpole
moving in its
sac
within weeks
it grew to the size
of a strawberry
then an apple
then a small leg
emerged
wiggling in the air
another leg
an arm
a smiling face
I was left with
an open wound
and a sense
of accomplishment.
