Woman

A Poem

Artist: Brian Kirhagis

I am the fire I am the earth I am the ocean I am the curse

I bare your children I bleed in pain I am objectified I am treated inhumane

My intelligence is invisible But my strength is unmatchable

I find no peace In this institution I am a slave But with conviction

I grow mad Day by day But it’s risky To not be okay

My spirit is broken But my soul is alive My heart is nonexistent But my fire will never die
