An ode to one of the most illuminating, most inspirational and boldest things in my life.
I feel like I can conquer the world
Like I have the power of the fates
The power to weave destiny
My infinity gauntlets
Ten mini masterpieces
A small big bang,
A manicure.
Adorning the dead cells that grow from my fingertips,
Nails.
Amplifying my every gesture,
My scribbles are a dance featuring my fingers, pen and paper,
Drawings are grand ceremonies
Typing, bright paint and glitter flash as my fingers stomp out
the flamenco on my keyboard
A skip in my step, dancing to my own rhythm.
That is what my manicure is to me.
