A Womb-man’s Wisdom

(originally uploaded by nelsononline)

yesterday i had a vision
today i planted a seed
tomorrow i’ll birth a nation
and you’ll still slaughter me.

 

belly round like infinity
veins thick like roots
able to provide sustenance from my own body–
yet they’ll still crush me.

 

dreams of prophecy abound
and i tell them what i see
just a woman so i’m pushed back into secrecy.

 

follow me on this journey
i’m stronger than you think

 

tomorrow i’ll birth a nation…
so why today do you wish to slaughter me?

 

Think!

 

dedicated to all women of the world

Ok, so my posts are coming about a month apart; i just haven’t felt inspired to write or film anything lately. But i did read something from the NY Times that inspired this short post. My friend Ndesanjo Macha is doing wonderful things in the wiki world. One more step toward decolonizing cyberspace.
