3/9/17: Equality #poetry

There is no writing without equality.

There is no living without equality.

Condescension expressed and condescension believed is violence.

Feeling insulted is a prerequisite of freedom.

Pride sets the course

I have never been insulted

by any person that I had not transcended.

One’s constantly transforming voice is one’s destiny

Never collaborate with anyone who would repress that voice

Live your peace with integrity

and watch the naysayers disappear

or not matter

I know all of this.

I’m Living Proof.
