Deep and well written poem. I respect its sentiment, even though I'm more of a stomper. ;-)

That's how to roll, lady.

my wails (as you say) are light
not for you Behold the Underlying Truth
if your soul protests, should I sense you’re worried?

Now this is so true! Loved the whole poem, Mitzi.

This has great rhythm, I can see it as performance art, it just slides into each line with a beat, and the intensity of the words make it very powerful. Good job!

You have a waty of "treading lightly" as you punch us in the nose, Mitzi. The Ghandi-like passiveness of this poem is juxtaposed with seething rage and a feeling of helplessness of things done wrong in the past. So, I read this "i tread lightly" in a much different light than will a lot of readers, I imagine. I concur with your seething rage. I know that it can, and is, beneficial to the well-being of your soul. Very good stuff.

Absolutely!

So i tread light
Cause that’s how my spirit
Told me to roll………….

There has never been any words ever spoken more powerful than those.

Great work Mitzi!
