Summary: I met my birth mother last week. I wrote a few words about it... just as an initial record of my feelings... but I'm sure there'll be more to come. Comments welcomed.

FACELESS NO MORE

I drove
through blinding freezing fog
nervous anticipation
I'd waited so long

I stood
shivering under a street lamp
a November evening
I'd never forget

I smoked
limbs weak I approached your door
through frosted glass
I saw you

I smiled
you took me in your arms
faceless no more
you are beautiful

....................................

EAST MEETS WEST

From a far off Eastern land
you planted your seed
deep within the Celtic West

Casanova of North Korea
charming exotic heart of Asia
I am your creation
