a day of days
birthrights claimed its day
hark heralded glad tidings
smiled fresh countenance
2022 January 28
In the beginning …
the past and future
were orphans
Lost in a silence
unnamed until
spoken
Waiting in anticipation
their birthrights
in limbo
The present expanding
its moment
—christened free
(The New Room: June, 2023)
A choice everyone doesn't want to make
Birthrights are given before conceptions
Others may have to surrender their lives
Rapists conceive a life without concents
There maybe reasons to make sad choice
It already difficult just thinking about it
Offer support at this time not judgement
No one has the right to force that choice
The words taste like music
from worlds long ago
Each letter resavored
in harmonies old
Coming to harvest
their sweetness imbues
A cave for an orchard
in wall painted hues
Old symbols retilling
those questions inside
Reborn when discovered
then never to hide
The silos refilling
new birthrights to seed
Replanted within us
—a symphony freed
(The New Room: January, 2023)
