A very personal poem.
Fatherless young woman,
Even with a stoop you are lovely,
You find humour in a tube of toothpaste,
Safe haven in a convent of nuns.

Did I mistreat you in a previous life,
Or is it a requirement of evolution
That I keep my eyes wide open
To the infinite variety
Of multiple forms?
