somebody once told me
the parts of your body you hate
are actually little gifts
bestowed upon you
by your ancestors
now, I tolerate my nose
just like my father’s
and decorate it with a silver ring
instead of clothes pegs
(March 2021)
Love the image of the little pegs and the idea that we can decorate the special gifts of your ancestors be they physical or personality traits.
