Then Sally Field May Look My Way
in one of her films
where a woman's strength reminds me
of the chiseled strength inside of me
Sometimes I get it right
Sometimes I remind myself
why it's important to run barefoot
on the beaches
of Sosua
to prove that you could make it here,
or anywhere
The ingrown shells
that cut my heels
help me build integrity
