Mikeitz

Asenath,

maid of Mitzrayim,

or foundling daughter of Dina,

castaway atop the wall of Egypt, 

or perhaps beneath a thornbush.

Asenath,

raised by aish-es Potiphar,

in the grip of idolatry,

like our other mothers.

Asenath,

wife of Yosef,

like Rochel his mother,

the bearer of two sons,

the lifespring of two tribes.

Asenath,

though her youngest will be greater,

now, without rancor,

the brothers are blessed together,

by the youngest son of a youngest son.
