A heartbeat against the womb
Vibrates right to her motherhood-
A surprise! subsiding all sorrows.
In her sudden slant,
...
The city is mine.
Tonight, she tempts me with her
Blazing, skyscraping legs wide open.
Knowledge is powerful,
...
With my skin bouncer-stigmatized
And my attitude welcoming immorality.
I enter, through her, the disco.

A Mother Born
A heartbeat against the womb
Vibrates right to her motherhood-
A surprise! subsiding all sorrows.
In her sudden slant,
Her radii-hair circle into a holy halo.
Exalted by every cherubic kisses
Of the hertbeats,
The gloaming goddess stands still-
So naked,
So beautiful.
Outside the holy room:
Inter-country borders only outline egos
And bills decompose into lowly laws
Star-crossing peoples' fate.
In another heartbeat, another kiss.
Jamil wakes up to her world-
Hazed by uncertainties,
And sings to herself, for she knows,
She is pregnant with a refugee
But pregnant with hope.
