female
I got nothing and everything. I got the ‘gina, boobs and womb. I got the pile of warm, stinky crap that said it was an honor to bleed and bare children. I have the visceral memory of smelling my infants velvety head and kissing her round belly. I can still hear her wild baby laughter and feel her teenage words shred my maternal fabric. My soul smiles as she recalls the tango she and her beloved danced to the delight of his family. She is female.

late
late last night I awoke, again. This time with hope for tomorrow instead of constant dread. When the word “resolve” came to the front of my brain my eyelids closed for much needed sleep.

roar
All day my body has vibrated; I have suppressed the roar that hums in my limbs. I get home and realize the hum is all I have.

scene
I feel cold dark dirt under my stocking feet. How can dirt be so soft and comforting on a cold failure of a day like this?

cap
Cap is the little bit of explosive that came in strips and went into your brother’s cap gun. Having no interest in the gun, a sister would take the strip and make the dots of cabloouey snap and crackle with rocks, knives or any other hard object. Guns were for amateurs.
