Had a run-in with an old poem I wrote. Thought I would share. #amwriting#poetry
Today I am the dove.
As a child, growing up in St Louis
I embodied the red of the cardinal.
The fires in my soul shown bright and
flamed eternally, it seemed.

As a late teen, I experienced the blue bird.
Learning of my illness and coming to terms
With my incurable crohn’s disease.
A trail of tears, pain, and anger.
My body’s betrayal.
