WE WILL RECYCLE

 

Will recycle from the bodies      

of all women,

women who died old or young,

women we never knew

Death will become obsolete,

stoning will not kill us,

beatings, rape, scoldings

will not vanquish us

We rise  

from earth

from dark ages

from the sun

from the graves

they laid us in alive

 

Silence will never put us off

we will  flame

from the depth of ashes

and bloom like red rose.
