Has Found Their Space

You hide yourself
beneath each grain of time
emotions…. all unfurled
limp of life -
tumbling through humanity
to lie amongst the shallow reeds
an unfair pool of genes
heredity or heretic
a Spartan, found within the sheep
sprouts of words once soiled –
now flowers bloom
to a steady stem,
where a petal is reborn
and given time -
has found their space.
