Poem Artwork

Somehow a lot colder
Now a little older
Darker I got lighter

My belt a notch tighter
My skin a shade whiter
But underneath ready

I am holding steady
In the face of it all
I rise just like I fall

With dignity through dust
The steel shows through the rust

I like those last two lines. Steadfastness for sure.
