emmeline...




uncommon grace
this lone voice speaks
words that desperate
countless others
long to also say
her strength a force
undeniable
not to be underestimated
determination unabashed
unafraid
a mission unrelenting
a beginning
a transformation
shaking complacency
countless oppressors
her violence of tongue
balanced perfectly with
love in her heart
devotion
for those whom she defends
toils
labours
the sea gathers
sheer numbers press
to glimpse
to hear
to touch palpable
the ideal
intensely hungry
for truth
freedom
her voice
rings clear
bold
offensive to the dull
deliverance to the masses
she stands
defiant
beautiful
elegant
a single sweet voice
an earthquake
shaking foundations
