wounded soles
walked on gravel
A path chosen on her own
robbed of dignity
juked of power-
She cared not for
voices that followed
-just made a run
for infinity
It could be a pipe dream
yet she knows she is changing
for better…
Quadrille 131 – with Brian Miller


Well done. And inquiring minds what to know, then what happened?

Nice capture of her journey in so few words. I find it best to leave the voices of those detractors far behind
