superstition
like a clear wall
blocking dreams
in clear view as you fall

Thank You!!
Thank You for Your entry: Superstition
This piece tugged hard at Spirit and while I was reading which I did several times~ even with 13Words...after inhaling I kept seeing words: As it should be said
I am hearing word: Glass Ceiling and seeing a female fall through...but getting word:
followed the pied piper~ looks like a teenager from what I am being shown
it is like this feeling of following what the others are doing, knowing it is wrong...but afraid to speak up~ Wild as it sounds I am being shown Star Wars with Princess Lea battling~ and nudged to mention after I read again~ Seek the Truth- Empower Yourself
Hopefully that makes sense
Powerful images You have brought forth
These words grabbed and pulled~
...in clear view as you fall
Unique Voice spoken~
Thank You for sharing Your Heart also Spirit!
Best wishes to You in the contest Sweet Soul
**Judging will be done shortly...
Many blessings too
and much love~ Desire~*~

me liketh that much. My mom is highly superstitious, which always causes trouble. Also, the fact that the poem is short really helps to emphasize the meaning. Keep it up!
