i have delved into the expanse of your/
silken hair and i have found in the/patterns of your braids/ the fingers of titans/your golden skin a pact with the gods/you are sun split/stars woven into the threads of your lashes/
you are primordial/your clay moulded from the ashes of time/a sculpture of ancient proportions/your eyes hiding the histories of all the worlds civilizations/and it is only when i have grown to fide your name/at once i know you are
— you are fearfully and wonderfully made
