Women

Society has forgotten

What is a biological woman

We grow hair in our legs and armpits

We live in a monthly cycle

We bleed

We shred

And re-build

We hold the universe within

Have the ability

To create

We build societies

Of women and men

And fill the diversity in between

We raise civilisations

of a thousand kids

We train all minds

We nurture across nations

Like hives

To then set them free

Masters of knowing

Experts of loving

Bearers of holding

Powerful divine beings

We turn empty fridges

Into warm nests

We flour the garden

Trusting it won't be

At our expense

Tapped into

The supernatural

Naturally

Part of it

From our body’s

Configuration

We know what is happening

Before we are told

Humble

Brilliant

Beautiful

Tender

Don’t look us in the eye

And don’t surrender

Kiss our feet

In reverence

These are the beings that

Build everything

Raise your hand

And call others

Bow in devotion

Devote in protection

Live in awe

Practice service

And respect

Pay tribute

To the ones who made you
