Instead of Depression

by Andrea Gibson

try calling it hibernation. Imagine the darkness is a cave in which you will be nurtured by doing absolutely nothing. Hibernating animals don’t even dream. It’s okay if you can’t imagine Spring. Sleep through the alarm of the world. Name your hopelessness a quiet hollow, a place you go to heal, a den you dug, Sweetheart, instead of a grave.

Whoever you are, and whatever helps, I hope today is a day you are finding the softest way through.

I stopped calling myself a pacifist when I heard Gandhi told women they should not physically fight off their rapists.

I believe there is such a thing as a non-violent fist. I believe the earth is a woman muzzled, beaten, tied to the coal slinging tracks.

I believe the muzzled have every right to rip off the bible belt and take it to the patriarchy’s ass. (Lines 5-13)
