Unbelievable

1.

A little lump of ice,
a nothing,

it would melt
on your fingertip.

The sperm was Irish
the egg Filipino.

And then this icelump
became a baby

I can rock to sleep
in my arms!

2.

The womb,
who happens to be my daughter,

a virgin at 40
sadly,

gave virgin birth,
God's honest truth,

in Bethlehem Pennsylvania,
to a beautiful baby boy

on December 25.
No kidding.

Of course not.  Nathan.

3.

Where did I put my phone,
see?

That little sleep moue 
fingers laced across his belly

like a millionaire,
the image of composure.

Used to be a lump
in somebody's freezer

minding its business
and nobody the wiser.
