APPEARANCES

Her appearance in this life

slipped past

the conscious intention makers of the world,

and instead,

she was brought into the world

by have to-s,

and taken care of

by the don’t really want to-s.

She searched for sincerity, honesty,

and a safe place to be in her innocence.

Blown about in a wind of

confusion and misunderstanding

with communication feasting

on misrepresentation,

peace coming at last

when the only person to answer to was herself

and in that intimacy and simplicity

a new life emerged

that included

every living thing.
