It's an ongoing battle to defy misogyny but what other choice do we have? Regenerating the heart of Eve's Garden is a noble mission. So much said in few words.
I had seen the word but never looked it up. "Misogyny" is a terrible thing that I never knew had a word for it. I liked the pronunciation but hate the word. I know that once a person has been given power and authority he/she doesn't like giving it up. Really like the racial thing too. I also like your "Woman Up" poem in the sidebar. ..
Yay! I love the defiance, and the regeneration of Eve's Garden.
ReplyDeleteYes! The regeneration of the heart of Eve's Garden. This is wonderful and powerful Susie!
ReplyDeleteThat part of the image, all of it growing from her heart, is striking. Glad you went with that!
ReplyDeleteOooh, very cool. Yes, so much we need to re-plant and grow anew.
ReplyDeleteThe heart of Eve’s Garden … love this perspective!
ReplyDeleteAmazing! A powerful poem.
ReplyDeleteThis reflects the artist so well I think - defying convention and seeking inspiration in nature.

ReplyDeleteI'm glad someone went with the vine springing from the heart. Reference to misogyny and Eve's garden rather than Garden of Eden is evocative.
