Effort is a long journey, destruction is a plunge.


Poem Artwork

 

 

All the effort of

Women together

Making it better

For us….for everyone…

 

Fifty years later

This paradigm 

Painfully unwinds 

And shatters the sun

50 years ago - 1973 - Roe v. Wade made abortion legal. Perhaps I took your 'fifty years later' too literally. Thanks for sharing. rlc

You are back! That image is stunningly beautiful!

And your poem… I so welcome all of the women going into politics. Taking on the challenge of being homemakers and politicians at the same time. Nurturing their children while they are coming the angry men in politics who think only of themselves, their dynasties and their hatred of other men. So many powerful men using women as servants and toys rather than for their skills and intellect.

All I can say is… Go get them girls!

The fix worked. Much better. I was rewarded with both the "summary" line and the poem itself. It is such a truism that the subtext for "undoing" is be cautious, for if we don't acknowledge the importance of supporting the often untapped talent, knowledge and wisdom of women. I've been challenged during the last year as to whether I still held such regard and respect for women given my recent experience. My answer. Without rejection, the learning curve will ultimately become flat. That is something I'm not cut out for. With rejection comes growth. I've always held the highest expectation for women who have matured through and beyond their greatest gift... maternal instinct. Thank you for this enlightening poetic thought. Namaste, dear friend.
