I drink my coffee dark
with sugar
organic chocolate milk, whole
and some cardamom
I try to meditate more days than not
and tell myself I’m beautiful
every single day
fabulous, too
I’m learning to say I can
and unlearning to say I can’t
I’m turning a deaf ear
to all my mother said
While I was young and impressionable
and didn’t know
how well I would be able to do
most things
When other women are dark and brooding
I let them pout and don’t take it in
It’s not for me to save the world
I’m having a wonderful time
saving savoring my life
