Purple
I will
hammer that nail
wherever it suits me
stuff my apron pockets
full of garden tomatoes
stand on a stool
to knead my bread
eat my carrots whole
raw, unpeeled, purple
not match my clothing
with my purse
(not even carry a purse if i don't want to)
celebrate my body
in nakedness, in clothing
decide who i am
and (i will) be that
i will be.
