As my mother, mother’s mother and so on
Diligent, day in and day out
Fire within their dry calloused hands
Swab and scour
Subdued
What worth
A rather useful keeper
Make ready
Bearing fruit
Young girls, now be attentive
You too shall adhere
Are you adequate?
Satisfactory perhaps?
What a fine helpmeet you will be
As they watch in judgment
I am not defined
I will embellish the outer lines with my colors
I will choose my course
My destiny
Thy devine decree
Never conformed
Love has no aspect
My spirit is free
Unconfined,unbound
Content in my skin
In ME, I am found
