lil1inblue @cuilin @dabbe @anncrystal The link is from the author's blog, where she explains how the poem came about. The last paragraph is interesting: "I consider that empty space at the poem‘s end as merely the beginning. It represents the place where you and I choose either to speak up or be silent on behalf of a free and inclusive society -- ⬇️ 1mo
lil1inblue where we choose either to act or do nothing in defense of those who would be punished for merely being and expressing who they are." 1mo
AnnCrystal @lil1inblue that's lovely, thank you for sharing this extra bit of info. This gives a whole new dimension to that last line ✊🏼🥲💙. 1mo
lil1inblue @AnnCrystal 💙🩵💙 1mo
