Walk Away

For my sister.....

Walk away Walk away Walk away

From gods who demand thoughtless obedience

Walk away

From pettiness that will make you petty

Walk away

From anger that will eat your insides

Walk away

From abuse which steals your soul

Walk away

Gaining strength with each stride

Walk away

Alone, arm-in-arm or in tandem

Walk away

Yet do not run away in fear

Walk away

You, first among equals

Walk away

Holding head high

Walk away

Now

....Frederick J. Cowie, Ph.D.
