30th sep/1st oct 2004

still more from same yr 9 journal..

'curse the glass
that mirrors back my face
keeps my eyes fixed on me
draws my mind out of place

curse the glass
that whispers in my ear
deludes my self-esteem
breaks me down to tears

curse the glass
that's wound the world insane
turned us from reality
and caused us so much pain

curse the glass
that keeps my eyes on me
distracts me from my purpose
derailed, it's hard to see

curse the glass
that segegates us sisters
injects ranks into equality
society's exalted blister

curse the mind
that fails to stick to purpose
blinded by obsession
pushes God under the surface

help us, Lord
help us see the beauty in ur design
set our eyes back on you
