Angel Light
'I must tell you about my plight
About confusion, rage and fright
About how my body changed your mind
Made me feel a lesser kind.
'I was just a girl of twelve
On my bike - a boy of nerve
I was very much with you
Boys and girls all fit one shoe.
'But when my body made me she
I found out the world was ‘he’
I became a sight to see
He became the force to be.
'When my blood of shame was free
I became the best of me:
A flower's peak of bursting growth
Spiting the Conspirator's mortal yoke.
'Thought I was quite out of mind
Felt so strong this urge to bind
Want to mate, I need my kind
I want the love I left behind.
'How I suffered for this instinct raid
This world's a patriarchal fade
Much forgotten, much is gone
I was used - became confused.
'Killed my child, my gentle way
Used my body, sex to play
Tried so hard to build loves way
But only lost more with each day.
'Now I have a fear-bound mind
Abortions made me change and say
I will measure how I play
I will play my cards to stay.
'My fragile heart I keep at bay
Measuring my love to control my pay
No one prepared me - I hate this!!
Killing love is the price to pay.'
When the Angel flowers to light
The girl has wisdom to ease our fright
A special time, a glorious find
Human potential beyond the mind.
A rite of passage must be found
To reap this harvest, plant new ground
To nurture this most precious gift
To teach the girl the quantum shift.
Nature is a garden of remembrance
Inspired perfection's teasing dance
All humanity is perfect too
Wisdom comes when flowers are true .
