Giving Birth to Myself
Taos, NM, 2009

Picture

On the ancient land
I am learning to follow my inner voice
On the wall of a mid-wife’s home
I am drawn to a painting
Of a soft woman’s body

Curled
With the words

“I am a woman giving birth to myself.”


Here on this land which

rips everything into shreds
I am giving birth to myself.
