Twin girls
Aquatic pair.
Strangers.
Swimming
Side-by-side
Sipping sap.
Doubles
No yolks...no chick
Cherry portion
Belly to belly

School and home they
Talk and play. Freedom
Separates them in-two-way
Mom knew XX were
From XY…asking not why?
Cords snipped,
doc slapped, towled
and wiped.

Separated,

Each.

Each.

Friends

Each holding
up her end

Almedia S. Knight or (ASK

After a little chat with Kamille one of the twins, later, she ask me to
Write about what we’d talked about. Here to you: Kamille, and your twin Kayla:
Nine months you shared the same little
Embryonic pond nourishing the same sweet sap
Not once did you fight…so why now?

Love.
Grams
