Mortal Responsibility
Galileo saw his planets –
but women were the first
to know of true miracle:
that new heartbeat; the
motion of life within, before
without. Oh, science can,
speaking of men, brute
strength define – and religion,
speaking of men, head of
household enshrine: but
God choose woman, to
conceive and bear – giving
man such mortal responsibility
was not something He
would dare....
