poem: she speaks – 04/07/22

She speaks of song and arpeggiated reach

twittering ascension,

her duty to self is to soar into a land of

quiet achievement

obtained with personal praise

self-talk of encouragement

no derision

raised tones should have no home

on a pathway of momentum

gentle positivity will grow.
