DICE

Ashima Syal

Poetry

23

As a single mother
I never hesitate to become a father to my daughter.
In moments like these, I breathe in the ease of gender.
A role reversal is always welcome afterall!
The daughter who learns profound masculinity, with an intricate feminine shade, tends to learn and unlearn where to roll the dice with the best of both worlds.
