My my my… this resonates and flames the fire within me - speaks to the passion I have regarding Black women naming/defining/redefining self for self. Thank you for your words and these truths!

This is incredible, wow! I’m literally revising a piece I wrote almost two years ago that’s about the Black Femme Body called “Bodies I Remember” and I feel like this is right on *time*! I am definitely going to implement one/some of these exercises as I refine the piece. Thank you for this. 🤎

Gorgeous prompts, thanks so much for sharing! I haven't written poetry in nearly a decade, but this made me realize how much I miss/need poetry as a means for expressing what's happening in my body.

Gosh. This feels like a start to a book! Or course, I suppose, if you float that way.
