World No Longer Seeks Her
Confined in her own twisted idealism
she wonders if there is a way
to punch out of this hell
Integrity be damned
The world no longer sighs
with the old, sick, discouraged or troubled
Each for themselves
Failure feeding upon failure
Bullies winning
She tucks herself inside
fearful of the throng
that does not even
know she is alive
and is not looking ….
