So Alive
By
Irene Delacorte
Violence touched her and she still lives,
Her vision tender,
Absorbing and smoothing the pain.
They gazed on her with reddened eyes,
Words like whips striking her . . .
Remembering the day they dragged her
into the muddy yard
Bound her to the dirt,
And eviscerated her while she was still alive,
She was still alive,
For what might have been ten thousand years,
For she was so alive.

Irene,
This poem really spoke to me. Even the language itself is so delicate.
Thank you for sharing it.
