HEY SISTER, WHERE DID YOU GET THAT WALK

Women
Seriously
I build them

They won't
Like that
What I said
But I do

Women
I build them

I hold them
When they're
Feeling crazy
I shelter them
When the rain
Pours in
I take them
To places
Imagined
And bursting
From memory
So that we
Might have
Seeding

And I watch
Them bloom

And when
They've settled
In me
And when
They've freed
Themselves

And walking
The walk
Of their own
That was mine
The walk That
I gave Them

They pour
The last of me
Into them
Then keep on
Walking
And Leave me
Searching
For them
And For me

Women
They seem
To love
For a bit
Then they love
And move on

Women
Seriously
I build them.
