For some reason, Rogue has been on my mind lately. So much so that I wrote a couplet today that unintentionally reminded me of her. Guess that what happens when you’re a superwoman in your own world, isn’t it?
Rogue
I’m reaching bold with these humble hands/Trying to grasp the things I imagine
I decided in order to live my best life/I have to be courageously delirious
So fine, I will hum/A mad woman’s love song
You can consider my visions as hallucinations/While I claim them as premonitions
But my heart is a gypsy in flight,/Fearlessly seeking
Chasing stars and conjuring magic/Choosing freedom over safety
I’m a hippie inside a metropolis/Destined to birth a new Universe out of concrete
My hands humbly/Cradling lightning
Mmm… i LOVE this. I haven’t run across any good poetry in years. Thank you so very much for this. Especially that last line… “My hands humbly/Cradling lightening”
