The Poet Lucille Clifton
The Poet Lucille Clifton
by Kelp
open the door to your tiny world
and let this good woman in
she’s got hips as big
as a city bus
with tires as flat
as a page in a book
she gets you to imagine
what its like to be
in the cracks in the cushion
of the seat of her soul
and the cracked insole
of her skin
