Flesh Made The Word Poem by Sheena Blackhall

Flesh Made The Word



Flesh made the Word
Words swim up from the bottom of my mind
Arrange themselves into poems
They are my grandmother's children, my father's siblings

Their country of origin crosses invisible borders
English stands at the entry points
There are rules and laws be followed

Poems from distant seas
Bob up like dolphins

Pre-birth, the silent tongue,
The stopped ear
The empty mirror
