And in that pleasant room 

- tall windows open

on the jasmine breeze -

did view

the record of my life,

and with the counsellors debate

the way

I might have done things otherwise

or could

do in a future life.
 

In the long shadows, we embraced;

outside

I climbed the grassy hill

among the trees;

stood at the brow amid the dipping light.

Then did I look on Earth

and saw my ma

conceiving in a scream of joy -

and then was gone.
