| Second page of my altered book: The Lamenting Prophetic Witness through the Eyes of Women's Insanity |
In my work, I see and experience a lot of tears. Too many tears. They are tears full of suffering, abuse, pain, fear, oppression, grief, and utter despair. Mostly, I can hold the space for all those bloody tears, but once in awhile I notice that inner stirring which tells me that a few of those bloody tears have gotten in and mixed with my own bloody tears. In those moments, I know what it is to feel the pain of being a human woman. Here is the poem from this page:
From Adam's clay womb
God birthed her
To weep bloody tears
From bloodied eyes
Into God's bloodied side
