Sacred Contracts I: Birthright

"It is your birthright to discover your            
sacred contract. it will guide you to            
find your divine destiny." ~ Caroline Myss          
           
Endings taught me young to gracefully          
release accumulations filling my lungs:            
Countries. Animals. Friends. Schools.            
Planes. Interstates. Cities. Lovers.            
           
My DNA  blooms like drought resistant            
Blood Flowers among the removed.            
           
I am the sole survivor of our experience          
Now. Each verse penned from a memory            
whose aged meaning has dispersed:           
The earth, the water, the air, words.            
           
The nightingale is an old language:          
A faithful 2:00 AM metronome.            
           
History didn't want to re-create          
Light formed into bone.  But man          
Wouldn't be defeated by so many          
Ego-failed attempts to magnetize.            
           
Yet the gravitational pull of the solar            
Plexus is resisted through the mind.            
           
Even so, our DNA is weaved in each          
Channeled stanza so easily erased          
for a new future. We learn eventually;          
Sacred contracts can't be breached.            
           
Anymore than water can be replaced          
or a birthright remain unclaimed.            
~
