  1. โคwhat a wise old soul is this young woman.. so far beyond most peopleโ€™s thoughtsโ€ฆ thank you ๐Ÿ˜Š

    1. The Obama’s could’ve easily fit those 50 migrants in their 12 million dollar summer vacation mansion in Martha’s Vineyard…
      Wonder why they didn’t.

  2. She is amazing and very powerful words..She is a vessel for healing humanity..! ๐Ÿ’ ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ™๐ŸŒบ๐Ÿ’—๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’Ÿ

    1. Migrants- I come to USA ?
      Michelle Obama- Yes you are so brave plz come .
      Migrants- I come to Martha’s Vineyard ?
      Michelle Obama- No…. Get TF out of here !!!

  3. A very intriguing and talented young lady. Really appreciate her work. She strikes me as a sort of literary medic. She “begins with the wound”, considers what brings us together – trust, honesty, healing.
    Best wishes for her continued success. Thanks for sharing.

    1. When you speak poetry, be sure to lead and make examples. Not speak as if glitters make the whole cupcake more edible. ๐Ÿ˜

  5. The line talking about the numbness we feel .. brings to mind the numbness some people exhibit towards other humans by committing violent crimes without the slightest bit of guilt. Attacking elderly or hit and runs on pedastrians followed by minimal consequences also speaks to the numbness we feel by allowing that to continue. NIMBYism gotta love it.

  6. Poetry is language, is song, is the first way we communicated. I love Anderson and Amanda, the GOP can’t grok this, to their detriment.
