I will not shave my legs
not because I am against it
but because being myself feels like my own act
of rebellion
I will not quiet down
let the world hear my pride and excitement
but I will not shout
let the world cower at the feet of my quiet rage.
I will not suffer
fools or otherwise
I will thrive with these cards that were delt to me
no matter how much the corrupt kingdom strikes
I will buy local
listen local
I will grow food
I will donate
I will help strangers
I will play music loudly and write even louder
I will be funny
and solemn
I will do my makeup camera-ready and my hair like a movie star
but look closely
I will not shave my legs.
