I found myselfsitting up in my cavernous crib
chasing motes through shafts
of sunbeam and shadow.
This is the temple
of my childhood
of my childhood
where I came into being
with family who welcome me home.
I belong to this life
alone and involved
in this togetherness of
long lasting bonds among siblings.
There
is no home
but the heart of belonging
but the heart of belonging
here
in the sisterhood and brotherhood
of the world we made to be
free in.
