from STRIKING THE SKY

     

Birth
   

My womb traverses the centuries.
The awesome spells of Time.
Where there is no beginning
Only darkness, silence, chaos.
The only light that exists is the womb.
I am the beginning.
My womb prepares the sacred rituals of birth.
I am a woman.
Not fragile.
No daughter of man.
Zues' brow was not my cradle.
My thighs are the steel and granite that support the universe.
I am lightning.
The mountains fear my anger.
