Scandalous Birth Miraculous





Before I take a breath
my body and blood destroy love:
by swelling my mother Mary’s womb
I move her fiancé Joseph to divorce her.
Fortunately Joseph’s love for Mary
inspires him to hear in a dream
that a messenger from god is my father.
When Joseph and Mary marry
we move people who know us
when disconnected
to connect imaginatively.
