People are like eggs
some get eaten
some break open, revealing
a beautiful, rich, and delicate
center
some lie in the nest
far too long
eventually taking up a dim
green
hue
and rotting slowly
from the inside
and some, against all odds
are held just right, warm
for the correct length of time
and hatch
into vibrating ***** of fuzz
that venture forth
into the cold
waiting
world
