Berlin
by Tamar Weir
Arriving
landing
my feet are on the ground
officially german soil
officially in the land of my ancestors
pulsing Godly
reactive vagina
arriving, unaffecting
vagina is now infected
german soil welcoming me with each new coffee shop
cacao beans
livening up the mood
now im awake and can see
all thats been left here for me to be
an infected jew thats what I am
no yellow star pasted on my shoulder
no signal, no sign, no mark
no marker in a sea of people,
walking
take a moment to breathe.
Fasten my invisible seat belt
attached to my heart
For only a moment.
I am free.
as the trains go by in every which way.
