I said I got to be free,
Opinionated,
Energised muscle mass.
I want equality.
Solidarity.
Fiercely piecing parts
Together, unhinged.
Sedition of the highest
Saturation.
I want sexiness
Tinged with challenge.
I said I got to be free.
And she just looked
At me, blankly.
Go do it then.
Boldly, and stop
Limply gawking
Through the windows
Of social media.
Shut your mouth
And vote with your hands
Begin the work first
In the mirror,
On your pillow, expand.
Then at the chapter
Of your voice,
Edit, rewrite and
Breathe into truth.
Then feast on choice.
Love yourself
Into action.
Stop your talking,
She said,
And go do it.
