frida kahlo

my bedroom is a bullring

the circle of my creation

the cycle of my battle

with the animal

the mirror

 

my canvas is a cape

my brush is my sword

i do metaphysical battle

with my body

 

sweet torero of improvisation

 

my spontaneous movements

stain the sand

 

i am showered with roses

my hair sweeping down

into my face

 

i am naked in this bullring

and everyone is watching
