Mothering
I gave birth to galaxies
Universe expanding
They shine in the distance
Welcome lights in the darkness
Love given and received
Forever bound and free
…
Adoption
Taken away at birth
A great disconnection
Cut off from the past
Alone
Some fare better than I did
I fared better than some
No changing the past
Wresting the future from the present
Only a glance back now and then
To take measure of the journey
Catch a breath and take the next step
…
Abortion
Reductionist arguments
Exclusive mindset
War of ideology in full force
Enforced rigidity
Of thought, values, behavior
What land is free
In such restriction
…
Meddling
They will try to tell you what to do
And how
Such arrogance
Such ignorance
A tiring process to protect
Intuition
One’s center
One’s time
And attention
Set the boundaries
Hold them tight
Flow like water
Around the fight
