the underlying structure of my life has been discolored by tears
accompanied by a series of thoughts, images and emotions
my heart subjected to malicious ruin
concealed in obscurity
by what others have designed for my earthly existence
then at 11:34 p.m, Tuesday July 24, 1990
a little pulse beat in my hand
a source of joy
a gift from above, made way for admission
into my atmosphere
the immaterial essence of me
free from guilt and sin
with no productions of harm
i immediately withdrew from reality
with her in my arms
no longer is my hostility intense
no more inequities to articulate
i don't have to wear a shield on my heart
at the present time
you are a part of my life in all your essentials
my love my life, my daughter
