Favorite Quote:
To tell a woman everything she may not do is to tell her what she can do. ~Spanish Proverb <br /> <br /> Women are not inherently passive or peaceful. We&#039;re not inherently anything but human. ~Robin Morgan <br /> Feminism is the radical notion that women are people. ~Cheris Kramarae and Paula Treichler

life
separation
to feel life pass you by
as you grip to the corners of your soul
page by page your life floats away as you live in the gray monotone
world
always trying to reach color
and beauty
and love

© Anna B., Marblehead, MA

The author's comments:
this is inspired by normal life everyone putting things off for later trying to hold onto things they shouldn't and not going after the things they want
