&quot;Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.&quot;<br /> --Harriet Tubman

Mathematical equations
inadequate data
birds in the migration
of summer to fall

Imperceptible strategies
with a pen to a sword
a failing representation
to dignify them all

Intrusive questions
and lies to reveal
the truth in disguise
surrender loyalty to heal

Everlasting nuances
assumed artistic stance
ignorance in a visual
watch out for onlookers

Deceit, mislead, disguise, people
not all are completely correct
but in black and white
those who cheat fall grey
