"feminal" poems
Just as over the course
of a year, the seasons change,
inevitably, over the course
of life, a woman's body will change.
The photoshopped
supermodel on the cover
of a fashion magazine
is an 'ideal' that does not exist.
While the allure of
youth & vitality cannot
be denied, neither can
the appreciation for time & experience.
It's the honorable path
walked by
all maidens
& matriarchs.
A path that comes with
blemishes,
cellulite,
scars & stretchmarks.
Wrapped
in every
shape,
size & skin color.
Yet, it's these so-called
'imperfections'
that render her
fascinating & unique.
A paragon of feminal
physique, so luminously
patterned &
intrinsically beautiful.
