-

Naked soul -child in the rain

The rain has been falling quite awhile

••

She has made her vows before herself and unto herself

-

She shall never go back again

••

She remembers things that happened before she was born !

--

She sits in the park where the young people gathered together

She sees the mounted police come racing over the rise

She sees the busted heads
And every crying child

NO!

She shall never go back again

••

Images of self inflicted pain
Images of acceptance
Of the mass destruction

Understanding now
The reasons for the powerful
False instruction
She has been receiving her whole life

How her school mates have been induced
To take up blade or knife

NO !
She will not go back again

--

She sees a lonely desert grave
Bright as Poem

She smiles and says

It takes a whole universe to bring forth a boy
And a world of boys to create a Man

Casting off ignorance
She starts to understand

--
--
And if you would know her you'd best do the same

•

( She remembers all that happened before she was born !)

And you were there beside her
YES !
Of course !
