2 Poems by Angelica Fuse

Succumb

I will not succumb
to your images
of what it means
to be a Woman

I will not allow myself
to bend and flow
with your definition's
structure

what it means
what I am
will step into being
with grace
and venom.


Falling Down

she fell down
a spinning star
after her long dance

only to be picked up

he selected
her from the table
a delicacy

until she became
the death of him
traveling up his veins.
