Young woman
what will you say for yourself
if you have no
language to speak?
no tongue shapes
learned to wrong
rites
right
rites
these practices
vowels
constant sounds
count syllables
know how many footsteps
to safety
where to go?
whose world do you live in-
can a man
be counted upon
to save you always
save him from the others
while you
lay pregnant
still words no words
to describe your belly
and
watch the world
don't worry
to vote
I hear
your muffled
breath
under the pillow
he still
holds
After watching film: The World Unseen
