Alexa or Siri?

In the Lamb's book of life

how like nubs of nothing

we were at first, null times zero,

a syncopation of blips the ear

is deaf to, nevertheless there –

a pulsar and another and

their steady patter in a warm,

dark cave of life, then a small

fish, swimming in an amniotic

sea, as yet blind, but attached

like a cosmonaut, drifting

in dreamtime, perhaps as yet

unbeknownst to our host,

the mothership that carries us

as we sleep the deep sleep

of the still unborn or is this

another life, virtually implanted,

programmed, made to seem

as real as you or I and will we

in our wonderment say yes--

yes, a miracle we have wrought?
