to live, to pray...

Poem Artwork


A Woman like Me

Stamped
and Delivered.

(Thirteen years in the 
memory bank; sealed
forever.)

This foreign postage
at my new address, this
residence where I am free
to live,
to pray,
to love
in my own way.

I am divorced.

I have proof;
the paper
"gold seal"
certified, xerox copy
of the decree.

Duplicated,
judicially, officially
stamped with the ink
of the circuit court clerk,
a woman, like me -
but not.
