A Woman's Place Poem by Katrina Harms

A Woman's Place

Rating: 4.0


i belong by your side
not in a pit or on a pedastal
not in the back of a car
as a princess would ride

i belong
next to you
when you face the dawn
not behind you
not in front

for how can we both see the light
through the thickness of the other’s
body?

i belong
by your side
not below you
not above

i am not of you
nor you of me
it’s simple

duality
