Woman. I rise. Woman. I am powerful. Woman. I am the light beyond what can be seen. Woman. I am the earth. Woman. My voice is my strength. Woman. You see me, You see my Ancestors. Woman. It is my birthright. Woman. Speak. Shine. Dance. Sing. Express. Create. Know. Feel. Cry. Laugh. Scream. Love. Stand TALL. Woman. You are Beautiful. Mujer. Eres maravillosa. Womb(man). I AM.
This poem is inspired by my beloved moon (menstrual cycle) that gave me the greatest gift today, to know myself and my Aztec and Mayan ancestors on a deeply profound level and the sisterhood I am coming to know. A credit to my soul sister Erika Shanelle Brogdon for the abstract title. To you, reader, may this inspire you to honor yourself and celebrate the ALL of You.
It’s so beautiful Ali 💞 Saludos
