Rosh Chodesh Adar Poem
By Bluth

Our sacred time,

is a time of hiddenness and emergence.

Chaos and celebration.

We look around and we feel

Oppression, pain, grief.

Revealed fragility

Hester Panim. The Hiding.

And this month invites us in,

To search the hidden.

Into the chaos, upside down, teetering on edge

Of moments,

With miracles.

Where there is oppression and suppression,

Joy is an act of resistance.

This is Defiant Joy.

We face reality, collective pain, and injustice

and we find the hidden sparks of Joy. We raise them up.

Marbim B’Simcha.

This is the Joy of Purim. A healing Joy. A liberating joy

that faces all of the darkness,

And invites it to the feast to wine and dine and shapeshift,

A joy that helps us to hope and imagine what is to come.
That the sea will split so bring your timbrels

Until we forget to remember until we do not know.

The difference, Our humanness, we come from the darkness

Of the womb(The tomb is the same gematria As The Womb)

Nahafochu – new futures can emerge

Mordechai asks Queen Esther,

Mi yodea im la’et kazot higa’at la’malchut?

who knows, if FOR THIS MOMENT, you became queen.

You arrived at this palace.
To each of us, Perhaps it is for this moment, That we are alive.

This is your invitation, your opening, your choice.

Plant seeds, resist, bless, care.

Let us Rise to the responsibility of this time,

Let us cocreate, heal, transform,

Through Joy.

Dear Queen,

la’et kazot higa’at la’malchut.

For this moment, you arrived.
