The Most Beautiful Body Art (2023)
The Most Beautiful Body Art (2023)
By Kevin Rashid Johnson
Muscles expanding
To accommodate
A life demanding
More space
The embrace,
And growth
Of nature’s
Ultimate truth,
Consumed
Within her womb
A budding
Youth.
Skin tight
Against the might
Of this embryonic form,
Forces within her
In contradiction
An interdiction
Outside skin torn…
To form
Patterns
Designs
Without ink,
Treads and lines
Like snowflakes
Unique.
Impressions defined
>From nine,
Months
Etched in time.
Her womb
Brought forth light,
>From night.
Two bodies aligned
Just beneath hers
Beat another heart,
A child conceived
To leave
Its marks…
In the form of
The most beautiful
Of all
Body art.
