there are a thousand ways to be a woman
right now i am the kind with dirt in my mouth
the best parts of me live underground
my roots entangled with redwoods and pine
i am silent, steady
there are a thousand ways to be a woman
right now i am the kind that dances fast
waits for the snakes to find my ankles
climb my body
find their way to my head
medusa's daughter
there are a thousand ways to be a woman
right now i am the kind that swallows the earth
waits to feel you all
inside me
