[_tinsunshine]

they are small; I am Not

I have
two feet
two tiny feet
bound in my mother’s womb.

I kicked my way out.

These feet
two feet
two delicate, dainty feet
carry me.

They carry me
across borders.
They carry me
beyond boundaries.
They carry me
past you.

I remove my bandages.
I am unwounded.

I have
two feet
two tiny feet
and they balance me with grace.
