're-wilding' is a poem written by Aliesha Bannister. It's printed on 200gsm mixed media (textured) paper, and mounted in a brushed gold style frame. The frame can be wall hung or sit on a flat surface.
 
Poem reads:
 
why do women go so wild
with screaming that feels like chaos
a guttural voice from within,
searing flesh
and ripping out roots
as it rises up
from the core of their being?
 
there’s a rage inside
from centuries of pain
and disconnect.
from centuries of suffering,
trauma,
and neglect.
 
many are disassociated from this pain,
but, once we get but a whisper of reconnection to it,
the waves of emotion and anger
are almost unbearable.
there’s a pain and rage inside
that’s begging to be felt,
released,
seen
and healed.
 
we call it the remembrance.
it’s a calling and it’s calling…
 
a return to our true natures
a call back to wholeness
full power restored.
