beginnings

on her knees.

she began on her knees, kneeling, the caustic brutality of silenced suffocation, felt experience of all that was uncontrollable, non-consensual, ferociously pervasive yet able to produce the pivotal moment of interest - what would keep her here? what would let her go?

the rebellious unbending of elbow, of knee, the wet crinkle of eyelashes parting, the grasping, gasp, of breath as throat embraces air, a turning of the tables and then - a life, unfurled. standing.

she chooses, when to kneel. how to kneel. and for whom. she chooses - kneeling.



"our visions begin with our desires" ~audre lorde

this blog is about un-covering and dis-covering, claiming and celebrating - desire. the defiant stance of saying it is my human right to desire. and to pursue that desire. in a safe, sane and consensual way.

to embrace the lived-in words of bodies.
