The Women's World Cup

Everyone is against me, and I am mistreated

I Show Who I Am

...My back is seen running away from the naysayers.
I doubt they have ever seen my front, not that I care.
Family whiners get to see me from the back also.
I might be running even faster from them.

If I Were Immortal

...When your wells run dry,
and blue is all you see in the distant sky,
I'd create grey clouds for you and cause water                                             to flow below from parts unknown, IF ...

Come On In

Reflections On Friendship
