thick lips are glossy / can see the reflection of / a river, burned blue / it's spent many days under the rain / the river is fertile, overflowing /
curly strands, gelled / growing from the river, roots / sun bringing forth twirling vines / a fruit grows, harvest / a garden sprouts from your scalp /
hot pink lacquered nails / digging, turning over old dirt / fertilize new beginnings / planting baby seeds, waiting / life will sprout from your fingers /
swishing wide hips / the water lapping at the garden's edge / nurturing / holding the river in arms /
dewy brown skin / has spent many days in the warm sun / fighting it, but growing / embracing the warmth, loving the sun /
chiquitita, your body is made of the earth / the purest form of life, is you
