Let no being carry the unearned burden,
rife with the compaction of endless wrongs.
Hoisted on hollow and growing bones,
forcing their shape into something hideous.
This hellish load,
wrought of all those wrongs.
Beautiful! We human beings do have a tendency to take on emotional baggage and burdens, removing the ability to sing and dance our way along life’s way! I appreciated “unearned Burden” very much. I look forward to more of your work. Kathy
Kudos!

Burdens and Challenges build Inner Strength. Without them, do we simply stagnate? Do we end up JUST Being?
