HALF A WOMAN
I walk with four wheels
Golf balls in my mouth
Can’t even put a sea-dress on my soul
Hands bent like old wood
Body wrenched in Cerebral Palsy
Is this a life sentence
Acquainted with the night for four millenniums
Stumbled through the desert
Lips burst open and bled
My angel wings cut
Couldn’t even carry a child in my womb
Screaming tears behind a smiling mask
Deep purple sadness painted my eyes
Love slipped away like water through my disconnected
fingers
How can a man see my summer-soul through
his eyes
Where’s my dwelling unicorn
For love is stippled deep in my heart as a myth
Why, oh why, must I be half a woman
