It Won’t Be Hard Forever
by Eileen Vizenor
^,y Saoirse-Seersha Bell
It’s having power, values and morals.
Respect for self and for others.
Giving of ourselves and taking care of ourselves.
It’s voting to have a voice.
However we want to express ourselves.
It’s dressing up or dressing down.
Marching to be SEEN and HEARD.
I feel feminism is solidarity, not diversity.
NOW! If only us feminists can get equal pay for equal work.
She presented me with the avocado
held out in both hands
in an ancient, sacred gesture
“It’s not ripe yet, it’s still hard,” she said apologetically
“Thank you so much!” I exclaimed *
“It’s totally worth waiting for!
It won’t be hard forever”
