Butterfly Broke Off.

LeConté J Dill
Published in: Health promotion practice (2022)
This poem is an autoethnopoetic exploration of my experiences with health conditions and diagnoses, navigating the medical-industrial complex, remembering my body, and actively in pursuit of healing. This work juxtaposes sociocultural herstories with personal herstories and juxtaposes playfulness and humor with seriousness, frustration, and grief. Ultimately, this piece critically analyzes medical analyses and seeks to recover the body. To view the original version of this poem, see the supplemental material section of this article online.
