Great characters-teens who use the outlet of poetry to express their pain, their dreams, their visions, their individual voices. One student will soon “age out” of foster care - Grimes highlights the plight of these adult orphans , and in epilogue, lists foundations and nonprofits that bring awareness to and provide options for these young adults 💔

Hope is the power
Poetry has given me
To channel the righteous rage
That would otherwise
Rip me apart
Hope heals my hurt, my heart
Leaves me room to breathe
Gives me the mustard seed of faith I need to press on...

Eggs Just read this ❤️❤️ 4y
