by what power did you so long gounnoticed?
who allowed you to live hidden,
away from nature's customs, given up
to city streets
without the fear of consequences that bind women's feet?
what god came down to grace you with
your fearlessness and pity
for all things made before you came
and all things incomplete?
those that rejoice in
acts of being
will be saved from appearances and worry.
tell the birds to spread their wings, we are ready
we are ready.
