some mournful

I remember watching
My baby brother
Wrapped in a soft blue blanket
Afloat in the blue Nile
Praying for his protection
I remember working with him
Organizing logistics
For each family's
Going out of Egypt.
I remember leading the women
in joyous dance and song
at the other side of the sea
When my brother Aaron's sons, my
nephews
Were burned alive in God's brutal flames
I mourned for them
While he could not
I loved them as if they were my own
The ones I never had
Time to have
I have had to be tough
All my life
I have had to support
Everyone else
And now, I am challenging
Moses' leadership
I don't know why
I am angry
My moods keep changing
