If you have taken this petal for my soul
Crushing it between your fingers to stain your lips
Know that she’d long ago moved on
Down the length of its stem into the earth
If you think you can grasp me, think again
My life is a wilful flow
Broken tap, water rushing from the mains
Your barriers poor
And thus a Goddess speaks. Vera, the voice of all womanhood at its very best, most whole self. ❤️
