Your

Miracles
From The Chiron Review, Issue 83, Summer, 2008

The nastiest woman
who ever cleaned me out
was a militant feminist
who wished me pregnant
so I'd understand
the hardships of labor
and the miracle of childbirth.

After a brutal parting
of our lives,
I wished her
a pair of testicles
that I could kick
so she'd understand
the miracle of
getting back
on your feet.
