Carried: Birth (Dry; Due to prematurely breaking waters)

I was rushed out unwelcomed, wanted over and done with, and I've carried that unwanted feeling from the first breath.

It shows as the body's record of an arrival met with 'let's just get it over,' a hurried, unwelcomed emergence carrying forward an intense ambivalence about being had at all, replaying how the person was met as an infant. The reflex is to expect one's coming to be an imposition. What it asks for is to let one arrival, somewhere, be genuinely welcomed.

The Archetypal Form

Perez, the twin who forced his way out first in a hard birth, the breach whose very name marked the rupture of his coming. The form implies a task: to let the forced, unwelcomed emergence be met, this time, with welcome.
