I was, I am

48 years 9 months ago God created

me-
the essence of
me /
He design-
ed me
He
placed me
in someone’s womb/
further shaping me
painting my dna brown.
(it’s only a guess
that she was of a similar hue)
He was preparing me for this world.
designating me for something 
for someone
The reason is still a mystery.

& 48 years ago
I was born:


denied of my bloodline:
I became,
and in becoming,
unbeknownst to me
I became someone else;
my loyalty 
unrelenting towards the fractured line of caseys.
I'm slowly evolving


after having become
(I’m told by my mother)
what a king’s supposed to be.

I wonder what  will year 48 bring?
the mystery is still unfolding.
perhaps it's what I will make it bring?
