You will not –
hold me
down, mr.
man will not
shave off my eyebrows or
yank out my teeth or rip lashes
from my lids or chop limbs at my
knees you will not – you
cannot –
reduce me.
You cannot --
quash
my flame, mr.
man cannot piss
on my bonfire hurl
water on my torch snuff the
innate hot blaze that long makes
my skin scorch cannot hush that
spicy sizzle
in my soul – that
consumes me with
the need to
create.
