The Dawn of John
Fish swam
And I unwashed
Upon the shore.
Some form
Of a literal
Transmission
from
Cause and
Something
Else.
I had place
On this earth,
Somewhere inside
my mother’s body.
As she grew,
I grew and
my body
Grew wise
To being a body.
BAM!
name
“John, like my father”
I was not a mistake,
My father informed
Me (sometime during
My fourth grade year).
Instead,
He explained,
I was a misaligned
Effort
To stay warm
On a cold
Winter night.

Moves on: nor all your Piety nor Wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line,
Nor all your Tears wash out a Word of it
