The Book Brick Road
The pages ripple and the corners fold
I travel east and west, grow young and old
I take one form, no not quite right, another
This one suits
The words breathe life into me
I bring its story to life
I constantly feed a frenzy of curiosity
One page, another
A brave girl begins
She watches the world
She sees the struggling
She understands the underrepresented
She stands
The pages are her's alone to conquer
Misfortune must be fought
Rights are reinforced
Courage takes down the corrupt
I read into the dying light
Catching a last glimpse of my heroine
Knowing this one suits
And just because I'm on some other land
I will not fail to fight like my ficticious females
