Poem
I bring you into world
Not from kissy beginnings
Or caresses
When all the finger wants
Is to drop the dress
I bring you into world
Not from smooth metaphors
Seducing senses and ears
Hollow with loneliness
Longing to breed the flesh
I bring you into the world
Naked of knives
Barren of guns and bombs
Shivering in verbs
Too pale for the meaning of the eyes
I bring you in the world
Like a new brand morning
With all the baggage of history
Broken shouldered, limping
Full of rage for liberation
I bring you into the world
Beginner of the battle
Bringer of the brave
Tsunami and pebble of the wave
Make sand castles fall
Whip the rock to grain again
