It’s All GoodA Poem by Maryam MottahedehIt’s All Good Some stories are told To stir things up In longing for some kind of response An echo perhaps, just to know ones owns voice
Like dishes some are brewed to Hear the Ooos and Yum yums And refine the chef’s tools In navigation of recipes
Like the fruit tree I know some Will eat me, chew me, spit me And some, savor the memory perhaps Some may want only the shade As to digest their own story Not for everyone You be you and I me
I miss my friend whose tender bosom bore Such confessions To inspire my jaw’s dropping My heart wishing to escape The cage of ribs in an outreach And the rolling tears In the whispered longing to Bare more humbly So that my fruits may reach Ever closer to a hands reach © 2012 Maryam Mottahedeh |
