I wrote this poem several weeks ago. I am willfully burying myself in books about feminism, social justice, and what we can do while we live on this planet.

Activism
identify yourself
stop apologizing
stop giving pre-ambles
say if you’re wrong,
only when and if you truly are
be open to being dismissed
spend a significant amount of time
in a developing country
know when to drop pebbles
so you know when to drop boulders
