An Ivory Truth (Bi+ Poetry)
Nov 10, 2023
Words, like elephants, carry weight.
The power to affirm
The ability to crush
The waltz, the stampede
The embrace of “the gentle” or a deadly encounter with a giant.
Seeking truth, Understanding truth, Telling your truth…takes more than just courage.
It takes grace.
And sensitivity to touch.
Knowing and trusting.
Breath and heartbeat.
For the weight we truly carry is unseen, but felt in every room we enter
It is tall
It’s loud
It’s bright
We stand tall in truth’s shadow.
