Oculage


The same moment

she saw herself
in her daughter's eyes

in exactly the same way
as she had been recognized by her own mother

a previously guised ground-echo was percepted;

this kinship
beyond chains of time

a sacred alliance

where words and looks
are born through tender affections

or where something
that is overlooked
maybe will resort to
dark havens
