______________________
The sun kisses her unapologetic face as she assembles the righteousness in her bones. Somewhere between Heaven and Hell The rich and mindful meet at a crossroad. The rich, lining their pockets, drunk on power. The mindful, starved of a weightless wonder. Assemble the arsenal of humanity. I pray that in my lifetime I will witness Their fall from grace. I will pave Rose Covered Roads and honor the girl who can conceptualize another way.
