“Breadcrumbs
And your doubt can become
Your ally, your fierce reminder
Of every blackened backroad
Every barren stream and
Every long moment
you stumbled through life
in red shoes the size of thimbles
Shoes that cut the arches
Of your white feet and
Told you to
accept only breadcrumbs.
Never to gulp the hungry air
Or open the shutters in your chest
To reveal your lionheart
Your doubts used to be the tales
You spoke into dark stars under
The bright gaze of Venus
No more, dear heart.
No more.”

“You wear a crown of roses.
You’ve fully entered the next phase of your life: a crone and member of the wise council of women.
You will be a part of the shift of ages.
You will keep the flame of women’s work and women’s stories alive. You will change the world by doing so.
It turns out, you’ve been a fire-walker your whole life.
Now, you will teach others.”
