‘Just Because She Carries It Well Doesn't Mean It Isn't Heavy’

I have been sitting here trying to find the words to pair with this image.... writing them out.... rewriting them. Deleting whole pages and starting over. All that remains is the lump in my throat.

This image was inspired by my life as a woman and a young single mother. I do not want to break down every detail for you. You can find the story, whatever it means to you.

I wrote Ward Churchill to ask if I could use the spine of his book, Agents of Repression, in the image to help tell the story. He agreed, and only asked that I send him a digital copy when it was complete. I did, and this was his response:

"Absolutely beautiful image. Many thanks for sending.

Love & Rage,
Ward"

Love and rage, love and rage, love and rage..... Those words brought tears to my eyes and sent chills down my spine.... Like poetry for my soul. I thought to myself, he gets it. That was all I needed in that moment. A quiet nod of understanding.

What have you done all day?

I'm filling bellies, hearts, and minds
I'm future-shaping

I'm washing dishes, clothes, and faces
Keeping it all going

I'm breathing life into tasks
That are really quite boring

I'm slowly falling in love
I'm neuron-building

Mind going ten to the dozen
Anticipating

I'm reppin 14 extra pounds
Bone-aching

I'm conjuring every single sleep
I am frankly done in

I'm living between rooms
Sleepwalking

I'm singing songs
I'm sounding out
I'm fred talk-ing

I'm cutting hair and nails and corners
Streamlining

I'm hanging on by a thread
Almost disappearing

I am the household worry doll
Mood-absorbing

I'm regulating little bodies
By virtue of my skin

I'm tracking temperatures and rashes
A whole heap of worrying

And I must make it look like nothing
But this is really quite something

So I'll secretly smile
Ignore your line of questioning

I'm collecting cuddles, sticks, and giggles
Memory-banking

I'm sneaking peeks at my beautiful babies
Letting it all sink in

Because
It's this
Seemingly this
Shockingly, this
Obviously, this
..that I will miss
