Nanashi

( no name)

for Kasia and Kai

(by jann castor, los angeles, friday, october 25th, 2002)

Last night

a baby was born.

It had no name when it came into being

but then

names are images only, aren’t they?

Last night

something else happened.

the Universe expanded!

and it needs no name to exist, does it?

Take eternity for what it is.

Nanashi.
