Fidelity, Junior!

Fidelity, after long absence, to return to find
The things that have crossed your path in life
Emerging from under the flat surface of the past
Like vague shapes of wrecked and sunken ships
Now that you live largely in the mind --
As though there had ever been any other
Place -- once born, once having existed -- and then
These things too are gone, forgotten years ago now,
All but forgot -- now that you live largely in the mind --
As though there had ever been any other
Place -- once born, once having existed -- inside that egg --
Thus did I explain to that appalled and stricken child
What I had not yet then known, and do not know now
Though when I speak of it my voice cracks, the egg breaks, my ancient eyes grow wild
