“*Poem: Washington D.C. (The District)*
I love it
In this square
of columns and obelisks�
and monuments designed
to align
with constellations:
To symbolize our protection.
Serius. Virgo. Sun.
Washington,
Here where Virginia and Maryland meet, and greet.
Streets and corner-stones laid
In the glorious shapes
of Pentagrams and Christian crosses
And cubes and pyramids,
And the Blazing Star set on a ley line,
And the temple in the eye.
Homes, made
of red-brick, and granite
Stones.
Laus Deo!
Answers
May be somewhere
Off the shores
Of the Potomac;
Where my father
Once baptized me,
And the waters
Of the district
Touched my skin.
And the consciousness of America
Was rebirthed in me.”
