Hers

October 16, 2014 · by · in Poetry · 2 Comments

I read this yesterday, which reminded of my other post, which inspired me to write this.

 

Her body is hers

not yours

not his

not her lover’s

not that representative’s

not that senator’s

not that person down the street’s

not her family’s

hers

her skin, her hair, her insides, her feelings

hers

her decisions are hers

they belong to the person born with them

they belong to the person who will die with them

they are hers

you do not belong in hers

they do not belong in hers

she and she alone should be in hers

get out of hers.

hers
