She’s a speck
\nA breezy little bit
\nHummin along.
\nLike an octopus fighting the ocean.<\/p>\n
She has no problem standin tall
\nWaves crashing
\nWater slipping between boogie board and feet
\nThe sea is trying to push her aside
\nNone of that for speck.<\/p>\n
She’s straight, like a strong stem
\nBut she still has bend
\nFlex
\nFlow if needed
\nOthers are stuck straight
\nBone wall straight
\nNerves putting in a rigid fix from toe to head<\/p>\n
Their gonna topple too.
\nHow’s that little bit brave enough to face a whole ocean?
\nI’m barely strong enough to brave the blank page.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
