Non Virgo, Sed Puer

this girl, sitting on window sills alone, waits

for her lovers return from tempting all Fates

by defiling a body, branding woman's tresses

with his seed—and he causes true distresses

when protruding through broken golden fences.

still, the girl is unknowing—she's unmended

with his games and his taking chances. blindly

she caresses her belly, feeling wildly

for the kicking and beating heart. she does pray

that her son will become his father some day.
