Menstruability
Haunting and profound with twist in abdomen,
Sudden turn of events as red stain is blooming,
Pace of Body, gauged by society,
Space of body laid in ritual reality,
Dailiness of action whipped under taboos,
Do's & Dont's settled with mythical whips,
Assorting into tiny sconce in lunar days,
Laying formulas to touch or untouch is disdain ways,
Mythico-religious notions sunken the periods,
Will those cardinals solve weekly cramps?
Probably everybody scorn redness of red blood,
Dehumanize souls since everyone born in that same red blood,
Matrix of mythical morals entangled the body,
Disdain the space which lays in this reality,
Despite blemishes in my body, tangles horror with shame,
Will still dishevel those norms and transcend in this space
Honor & shame in following these beliefs of immorality,
Shedding off this myths with feather of menstruability.
Untouch those taboos dwells in society,
Begin new life touched with humanity.
(Will dedicate this poem to all
women around the world, dwelling in mythico-religious society)
Great work!
