The little girl,
And younger woman
I used to be:
threw temper
fits, and yelled
And screamed
At the whole wide
terrible world
I did not want
to be born into.
My newest case manager,
(at Compass Health
and fellow poet) made
a simple request to
me. 'Why not write
poetry about how you
used to be before you
let Jesus Christ
change your life?
