i want to apologize to all the women
i have called pretty
before ive called them intelligent or brave
im sorry I've made it sound as though
something as simple as what you're born with
is the most you have to be proud of when your
spirit has crushed mountains
from now on I will say things like you are resilient or you are extraordinary
not because i don't think you're pretty
but because you're so much more than that
