I loved the idea of taking peoples hate and using it to make yourself grow stronger!
This is a devastating piece. It twists and turns itself inside out and then back again. The shape and the width of suit the the theme of the poem. I love how you take whatever makes you weak, fragile and vulnerable and let it make you grow stronger. Inside, out and back again with a vengeance.

This is an incredible thought of using the weakness of others to build ourselves up to resist the bullying and absurd harassment.

It made me feel terrifyingly powerful. Like I was afraid of my own power. I loved the comparison of the body to the earth.
