When Marnie Hit the Wall, Part Iii

...Marnie’s work had gone viral, she had built a following,
and the internet is a sneaky, ever-shifting thing.
When big tech sites would ban her, she would just move somewhere else,
and continue on with her mission, the truth of things to tell.
eventually donations were enough for her to live,
and she found great happiness in using her words to give.
She learned to brush off the haters because when she would read
listeners offering their thanks, she knew there was a need.
It was not the life she dreamed of, or of feminist shills,
but helping other women out made Marnie feel fulfilled.
