    I have read this several times and I think I understand the title and how it ties to the poem itself. My take on the poem is that is deals with beginning life in the womb before bones would be set in growth, conditions in the womb and maybe the outlook of that life before and after birth. I may be totally wrong, but that is what I take away from reading the poem.

    Several things that in my opinion need attention are

    ^^^ The waters they move in a sinister sense

    This line, some of the words are not needed. My opinion is that if the line read Waters move in a sinister sense, the flow improves and doesn't change the message intended

    ^^^ withered roots & the acrid fetus of an empty memory.

    I would spell out the word and and remove &.

    ^^^^ thought becomes tainted by aphotic notions, blood

    I don't understand the use of the word aphotic in this line based on the
    definitions
    1. Having no light.
    2. Of or relating to the region of a body of water that is not reached by sunlight and in which photosynthesis is unable to occur.
    Unless it is used to indicate darkness maybe? Still not sure.

    ^^^^ Tangibility, ephemeral in it's physicality,

    It's should be its (it's is a contraction for it is)
