I dreamed my genesis in sweat of sleep, breaking

My pantoum, written a long time ago


I dreamed my genesis in sweat of sleep, breaking.

inspired by Dylan Thomas: "I dreamed my genesis in sweat of sleep, breaking"

I dreamed my genesis in sweat of sleep, breaking.
Waiting, frozen words unsaid, yet screaming loud.
Silent crying, woven in ancient memories. Aching.
Foreseen in silence; out breaking words soughed.

Waiting, frozen words unsaid, yet screaming loud.
Grievous verdict. Hide, hide, here is no place; no hide.
Foreseen in silence; out breaking words soughed.
By passing me by, saying "live", I say "live". He untied.

Grievous verdict. Hide, hide, here is no place; no hide.
My genesis, so cursed by men, ab ovo under His wing.
By passing me by, saying "live", I say "live". He untied.
Had to get rid of the grudge, the hate, the harsh acting.

My genesis, so cursed by men, ab ovo under His wing.
Reborn by blood to life so precious, part of the bride.
Had to get rid of the grudge, the hate, the harsh acting.
Freed by the Son. No legal ground. No more backslide.

Reborn by blood to life so precious, part of the bride.
Silent crying, woven in ancient memories. Aching.
Freed by the Son. No legal ground. No more backslide.
