WARNING: THIS CHALLENGE CONTAINS TABOO MATERIAL. Women have been taught to loathe, fear, reject, cover-up and stop their moon cycles. Ladies (and gentlemen if you feel so inclined) what does your moon cycle (period) mean to you? I will post a poem in progress to start things off.

Heal the moon
Mother crouches in darkness,
Head on her knees,
Blood dripping down
Washing against the toilet sides
And a scent,
Rotting life,
Moss and iron
Files deep within my cells
Until I bleed,
Moan,
Clutch my womb
And wonder,
Why this pain?
Is something broken?
II
I’m driving home early,
High school in the rear view,
17,
Stop at Old Navy for pajamas
Blood and drugs and ice cream
Praying for unconsciousness
Let the moon flow down
Wake me when I am clean again.
