ready to let the rivers wash over me

um daqueles dias dureza.
mas encontrei a lice, traduzi um poema lindissimo de jenny joseph. conheci poemas novos de audre lorde! reli um ja conhecido y muito, muito querido

A Woman Speaks

Moon marked and touched by sun
my magic is unwritten
but when the sea turns back
it will leave my shape behind.
I seek no favor
untouched by blood
unrelenting as the curse of love
permanent as my errors
or my pride
I do not mix
love with pity
nor hate with scorn
and if you would know me
look into the entrails of Uranus
where the restless oceans pound.

I do not dwell
within my birth nor my divinities
who am ageless and half-grown
and still seeking
my sisters
witches in Dahomey
wear me inside their coiled cloths
as our mother did
mourning.

I have been woman
for a long time
beware my smile
I am treacherous with old magic
and the noon's new fury
with all your wide futures
promised
I am
woman
and not white.

foi aniversario de uma quase-amiga. quase porque a gente ta se conhecendo agora. foi legal mas tambem fiquei estranha la, tremendo um pouco, balancando musculos involuntariamente.
