Free Love

Take the corset off the way you love
free love from its stifling, binding stays
liberate expressions of devotion

Let wind blow through love’s loose hair
let love leap and prance about
take the corset off the way you love

Wriggle toes of barefoot love
raise love’s arms in vulnerability
free love from its stifling, binding stays

Shed the molds of love’s appearance
look for love in unexpected places
liberate expressions of devotion

The Day Twenty-two prompt is to write a poem with repetition. I used a poetic form called the cascade.
This poem was inspired by the poem Redefine Everything by Chelan Harkin which can be found in her book, Susceptible to Light.
