If the bible is true
Then Eve was made from Adam’s rib
And all the women that came after
Were made to love men born from dirt,
And not me,
I was born from a thunderstorm,
Fresh rainfall cradled in a crevice, pooled
I lay on my back long enough for tadpoles to turn to frogs, hop away
From them I will choose my bride, reverse the fairy tale, claim my own frog princess
She will clean up nicely, but keep her web toes
My lady will love to swim, while I
sit on the bank, basking in the sun
Trying not to be jealous of foreign waters
