natural
the magazines tell me
'natural'
is a ***** word
like my bare skin
is some kind of rebellion.
i have laid no foundation.
no mascara on the windows.
so they find my architecture
unacceptable.
yet I think my home
is beautiful.
simply
because it is home.
my skin.
my nature.
still
i hear them whisper
'natural' is a ***** word -
and you don't say those out loud.
do you?
i have felt and still feel insecurity about not having a perfect face or a perfect body or perfect makeup or a perfect aesthetic.
***** it all, i say
