Walk,
as far as these feet will take me.
Moving with deliberateness,
laden with calculated purpose.

And knowing that every time each foot
successfully meets the earth,
I would always be somewhere new.

Each step would feel perhaps
unfamiliar ground,
shed new light, see fresh faces
and experience different days.

As long as I stay loyal to the course...

Always moving...
Walking,

into the sun.

Cut me loose

     from these strings

          that bind.


So I might again

     exercise the freedom

          of mind.

I’ve
built
a cage
around
my
heart.

Not
to keep
you out,

but
to keep
you in.
I've seen the sequel,
So this ain't the prequel.
Stay strong. Stay SD and use soap.
My reward not determined
by anyone else

Thorns as
roses named

Words carry inward
on breath I define

Acceptance
—self ordained
