now, and then
Mar 19, 2023
when a young girl
begins to bleed
they say she is
a woman when
a young boy reads
his first portion from
the bema they say
he is a man when
the March calendar
reaches a certain
date they say that
spring is here now
rituals matter but
still we must reach
out and meet what
has been declared
