A Good Little Girls Zine

Empty Cavity

I saw inside my uterus today:
A tiny black,
empty cavity
strong–
like an upside down pyramid

It stared back at me
Showering me with daggers of hope
and love
and truth
and relief

A meditation of sublime serenity;
I sailed on those silver saline waters

Ever present

Ever grateful

Ever me

I saw inside my uterus today
and what it told me made me smile.
