I honor the Force who/that sowed the seed which became me. In degrees though often unaware, I have grown
from rumblings a sprout answers to a name
Lashed by winds, bathed by rains, kissed by moonrise, swaddled by fog, cradled by dawns, how can I be less than a song
the knowing sky neither eye nor lips
They say I leave footprints, scents, echoes, a ghost prowling with the fox for a lair, yet no one says my name
for every mute wind a foghorn
If, at all, you pine for me, feel your breast throttle
pulling down the sky a tipped moon
And on folded knees wait
– Alegria Imperial
