A feminine predicament
while giving birth
to sadness, fear and empathy
the female turned down a chance to prosper
she didn't sign
she didn't copyright
she didn't remember to record
or to witness
while small faces suckled at her soul
the feminine being
continued to garden her love
now, what has she got?
a small planet
with well-fed predicaments
This is an entry for the Mookychick blogging competition, FEMINIST FLASH FICTION 2011. Enter now.
