"The bread of her waist, a loafwe would knead with 8 year old palmssweaty from play. My brother and I marveledat the ridges and grooves. How they would summit at her navel.How her belly looked like a walnut. How we were once seeds that resided inside.We giggled whenever she would recline on the couch,lift her shirt, unbutton her pants, let her belly spread like cake batter in a pan.It was as much a treat as licking the sweet from electric mixers on birthdays.The undulating of my mother’s belly was nota shame she hid from her children. She knewwe came from this. Seemed grateful." -Sonya Renee Taylor
