Drama Life, Curtain Birth

So was it when my life began
when grandfather’s eyes set aglow?
All life phases the room did span

at his funeral. Death can’t ban
love. Just four years old, crying, “No!”
So was it when my life began.

My gay father- a married man
‘til he left and churned siblings foe.
All life phases the room did span,

when momma walked the aisle again.
Children dethrowned with gain of dough.
So was it when my life began-

bright blue eyes and unwritten plan?
In arena of raped, I go-
all life phases the room did span.

The death before life of a man
outside the womb, I’ll never know.
So it was when my life began,
all life phases the room did span.
