Mother of many

Yes, our tears stem

From your success

& your smiles

Are inspired

By our sickness,

But your nest

Must not be nourished
By the warm blood

Of my womb

& your breasts

Should not be fattened

By the flesh of sinless infants.

Even though you reproduce

Like the clouds

Of a storm

& your children

Are as countless as the seeds

Of sorrow

Whilst our little thin as the reeds

Of the brook,

You should not seek

A home

In the shells of our souls

And let your pest-offspring

Find sanity & rest

In the mad bustle of our blood.
