Took a lot of years
But she's pushed
Up and through
Unearthed
Paying it forward
Paying it back
To the ones
Whose blood spilled
To nourish her
To the ones
Whose bones bent
To carry her
And in the half light
This half girl
Half creation
Brushes away the soil
From limbs too large
For life
And she rises
