Dear Those Who Resist


Dear Those Who Resist, 

With your heads held high 

But fists raised higher

You are the ones with power

Your eyes exemplifying rage

But your hearts' only angrier 

You are the ones with compassion

Your feet march quickly

But knees kneel harder

You are the ones with kindness

Your shouts are loud

But their silence is louder

You are the ones with power

Thank you,

A Nasty Woman
