In his gentle sleep
I'm watching him with tenderness.
Tender waves of gentle breaths
gently rock his tender body
In his gentle sleep
I'm watching him with tenderness.

Snow disgusting, cold
Hibernating would be good
Still, so beautiful.

Anger
And Aggression
Awake Angst, Anger
And Aggression Amongst Absolutely
All.

Mothers
of life,
of arts, of any
kind of creation, all
wake!

Let us
modern mothers,
creative creatures, let us
rise!

Let
us ladle
from the universal
source of creation! To live is to
create!

I am no mother, so I
Can bathe in vivid vibrations.
I am no mother, so I
Have been to a bunch of peculiar nations.
I am no mother, so I
Have time to treasure art’s treasure.
I am no mother, so I
Take pleasure in Measure for Measure.
I am no mother, so I
Am a Queen and can relish my reign.
I am no mother, so I
Can nourish my brilliance and brain.

I live my life to the fullest, and one day you will see
Your very self is already dead, drained of all energy.

I am the mother of all
Springs fertile fields and flowers.
I am the mother of all
Sweet crispy summer’s showers.
I am the mother of all
The sparks of love and light.
I am the mother of all
Whose feathers spread in flight.
I am the mother of all
Whose souls in mists do rest.
I am the mother of all
Who anew begin the quest.

I am all that’s life and for all that I can see
Who are you to judge, who is but death to me?

I wish I were
a gravedigger,
armed with,
the sharpest shovel,
thump by thump,
digging up
that wooden box.

I wish I were
a doctor,
armed with
the sharpest scalpel,
cut by cut,
dissecting
theses arteries.

I wish I were
an embalmer
armed with
the sharpest substance,
layer by layer,
mummifying
this muscle.

I wish I were
a seamstress
armed with
the sharpest needle,
stitch by stitch,
sewing up
this skin.

I wish I were
a daughter
armed with
the sharpest memory,
step by step,
reviving
this love.

I wish I were
a woman
decorated with
your heart upon my chest,
step by step
stitch by stich
layer by layer
cut by cut
thump by thump
telling me
to whom
you dedicated
that last beat.
