Pegi Eyers
Dedicated to all the “illegitimate” children who were born in recent centuries and given up for adoption, before women obtained sexual and religious freedom and the right to choose a single parent lifestyle.
(Immaculate) Conception 1955
These are the children,
in sound & fury
that have been unleashed upon the world,
the offspring of untapped wombs
that wait at the end of desire.
Father Church & Mother Culture
block all ripe awakenings.
And yet, a new generation appears,
shaped from confusion,
born from discontent,
speaking of all things
under heaven, close to the earth
They have caught a glimpse
a divine spark
held secret
“keep it quiet, keep it safe.”
Sired by a cataclysm of authority
springing from an ova of fear
nurtured by the unaware,
cloaked with the black robe of belief
These children
- reborn as miracles -
are hearing the bells of inner truth.
