i will fight
i will fight until my hands break loose
until my bones crack
until my feet bleed from the running
charging
leaping
i will fight until i am torn and aching
for my sisters
for my sisters
for my sisters
and then i will keep fighting.
i will fight
i will fight until they crush my arms apart
until my eyes weep
until my head cracks from the beating
whipping
bashing
i will fight until i am numb and battered
for my mothers
for my mothers
for my mothers
and then i will keep fighting.
i will fight
i will fight until they start to see us
until i am red and glowing and furious
until my breast breathes loud from the gasping
shattering
thundering
i will fight until they are afraid
for my daughters
for my daughters
for my daughters
and then i will keep fighting.
