Bodies

Bodies

by Elizabeth Challinor

I know!

It’s my body

So I get to decide

Even so

It’s a struggle sometimes

I’ve been thinking

Lately

How

My body

To function

And express itself

Work

Play

And

Blossom

Depends on you

And you and you and you

It’s your body

You get to decide

But you know what

I’ve been thinking

Lately

How

Your body

To function

Work

Play

Express itself and blossom

Depends on a whole lot of them

It’s our body

We should get to decide

Why is it such

A struggle sometimes?
