Star Baby
By HC_Leung
Hi, I'm a baby!
All this is fresh for me. And exciting.
I'm four months old already
and my cheeks are pretty chubby.
The woman who gave birth to me is cooing with me
while I go through her Costco diapers like crazy.
She loves me, I'm sure of it.
Although there's something she doesn't know about her baby.
You see, I still have my previous memory
although it is fading as we speak.
Prior to this gig, I used to roam the universe,
plucking infinitely long strings to born life and physical matters.
On behalf of my creator, I lit the stars,
breathed the nebulae, and waded in the rivers of time.
I've seen planets born, civilizations fall, and wars recklessly fought.
Nothing's permanent, I can assure you, and nothing's worth fretting over.
That is why I came down here: to experience life, emotions,
and one day lead mankind to the universe.
According to the ancient scroll, hidden in the heart of the Great Spiral,
you are meant to venture abroad and make a dominion.
Anyways, it's time to go. I need to
poop, feed, cry, and sleep, not necessarily in the same order.
The woman who gave birth to me
is coming to get me.
She is always sensitive to my needs.
