“Feel the fear and do it anyway” ~ Susan Jeffers
Today she showed them what she was made of.
She slowed her pace
found her focus
channeled her energy
allowed herself time to reason and
ignored negative impulses
today had been different.
Comfort didn’t concern her.
Comfort was a well-worn pair of shoes
seconds before the strap broke.
It seeped from her consciousness
trickled down her back
and found warmth in a well-worn hollow
signaling an explicit riposte
from the trenches.
