STICKS AND STONES MAKE ME STRONGER
Location
I've heard it said sticks and stones
will severely break our bones
but words will land here harder.
Maybe bricks can be used
for burials,but they also
can be turned into glass bricks
to build diamond castles.
Sadness makes castle bricks of
my mud my blood and my fears
But I have no time for this
madness, so I will release
mud burns to radiate gold
blood into brilliant genius
fears into sharp bravery
Spinning the glittering gold
into dresses of grandeur,
genius to sharp, new beauty,
bravery into greatness
never seen by human eyes
Maybe sticks and stones break bones
but I'm queen of diamonds.
