Gemini
My mother wove me
from the darkness
somewhere beyond
the black of night
She took the
moonlight and
stardust
And sprinkled them
into the strands of
my corn silk hair
Alone I drifted
I was the pearl inside
her body
The smile upon her
lips
The daydream in her
far away gaze
The cessation of longing
in her heart of hearts
The lullaby of her
womb
The poem threaded
into her soul
Who am I now without her?
What is my destiny?
