I am Sojourner Truth.
On a journey seeking truth.
I have met king and queens
Disguised as pimps and prostitutes
Murderers and thieves
I don’t judge
The only difference between a hustler and a minister is their choice
Their call
See, we all wear masks
And at some point, we all get tired
Time is the greatest exposer
No, I don’t judge
Rather, I give things time to expose themselves
Friends, truth, love, purpose
Purpose
A close rival of mine
I have been on a quest for purpose ever since I can remember
Fighting, toiling, debating, raging war on any threat
I am tired.
I surrender
Just when I lay down and dug my grave
Knock, knock
I open the door and there it was in all its glory
Purpose found me
I am a writer
A poet
An advocate
A social commentator
A lover of truth
A sharer of light
I am a voice in the wilderness crying out
The journey, much like fingerprints, is unique
Each individual carries a piece of the map
No, I don’t judge
My enemy could turn out to be my greatest asset
So I sit back and let the story unfold
Annotating what I see and how the Holy Spirit speaks to me
Life happens in cycles, much like seasons.
The wise pays attention and moves with the time.
