Here’s to the body. .
The prolific body.
The orphan body.
The adopted body.
The care-taker body.
The song body.
The warrior body.
The crowned body.
The kind body.
The child body.
The mother body.
.
Here’s to this body.
The body that built me,
blood by bone,
small sweat to sonnet-grown.
.
Here’s to this body’s alchemy:
The body that birthed,
the body that miscarried,
the body that terminated,
the body that chooses,
the body as chosen.
.
Here’s to this body’s freedom:
Freedom from the confines
of desired size,
from the clenched mouth
of shame’s cinch,
from what’s thought of it.
I am a freedom from within.
.
Here’s to this body:
Its slither and swerve,
Its bloom and break.
Here’s to this body
taking up space.
This body, mine.
This body, graced. .
Here’s to this body, unfiltered.
Never fake.
.
Here’s to this body’s language,
an echo of her elders,
a repetition of their fight.
.
Here’s to all the mothers
and daughters
and sisters inside us.
Here’s to our light.
