Female Person

I am a female person

Its written deep within my cells

I create and fight; I cure the ails

I bend and burn and bloat like a swell

I’m the strongest, smartest kid on the block

Try to knock me into any corner

I will rise

I always rise up

I am a female person that takes on the colors of the land

Camouflage

Camisole

Chamomile

Just ask and I will be there to inspire and hold your hand

We will rise

Always rise together

The lace                                                                           

leather                                                                                     

pucker and the sucker –                                                                         

it’s all an attempt to steal my brilliance

You cannot grasp the sun

Until you realize the Jeanie in the bottle can snap her fingers and be gone

I am
