And yet, in the kitchen,
where life is rebirthed,
there gathered the women
Deep work of the hearth
The water is boiling
the rags have been torn
Love’s labor is roiling
the guides through the storm;
change the only constant
Lachesis sings then
the hist’ry of what was
Clotho the spinner
weaving fates justly caused
Atropos, the shears
ending life at her whim
The Moirai have weaved
The Fates genuine hymns
