November Poem-A-Day: Day 2
Today’s prompt is to use an epigraph to start the poem. I need help with the title.

“As a woman I have no country. As a woman my country is the whole world.” –Virginia Woolf
That you read my flesh all wrong
Does not make me a body of lies
You ignore my soft shape where blood and water
Make paint for rubs of primitive war upon cave walls
A generation drinks of me from leaves tender torn
Steeped in visceral heat that clouds what was clear
I leave a taste upon the tongue
