Within
Do Something New (Go Within)
by MindiMeira
January 6, 2017
Hand above hand
Slam the pegs in.
Abs tight and
Clenched
Goals set
Within.
Nausea and fear
never stood
a chance.
A gift cert to fly?
Teach me how
That’s my stance.
New moves in public
Not a fun game
Realize now
So beneficial
Nothing the same
On the bench,
Pray pray pray.
Prosecutor and judge
Please don’t sway.
Promise you’ll put
The bad man away.
So many chances
Do something new
Break out of my mold
Behave like a Jew.
Not distinguished
Or elegant.
Just being humane
Don’t photoshop
this shit.
Truth is
It’s insane.
Hand above hand
Pegs slam in.
Inner strength
Conquers
Evil and Sin.
Can you ever
Really know
Someone?
Believe
We
Can.
New moves in private
Not a fun game
Realize now
So beneficial
Nothing the same
We can
Do something new.
First step- Begin.
Inner Strength,
Courage…..
Find
Ourselves
When we go
Within.
Reflections on the first week of 2017. Can strike a few things off of the bucket list: Climbed with pegs, went indoor skydiving, took a J-barre class, went to court with someone who was alone, on a moments notice, and stayed with them for hours and drove them home because it was the right thing to do.
