Poetry || SubmissionsI WILL WALK( for the women of Afghanistan ) By Jackie Joice I will walk even if I have to walk through scorching flames and burn the soles of my feet. I will walk even your words are sharp and pierce my flesh. I will walk through the wicked streets and push aside the sweet bodies of my sisters I will walk to work I will walk to school I will walk after I am beaten with your fist I will walk after I am stoned I will walk bruised and bloody black and blue mutilated violated naked but I will walk and I will not take my life and I will not stop walking until I kiss the feet of Liberation. My name is Jackie Joice and I reside in Long Beach, CA. I was involved with a writing campaign for the women of Afghanistan. This writing campaign was orchestrated by the feminist organization Una Mujer Como Yo. I have been writing for about ten years now and I am currently working on a novel. Her email address is screenplai@aol.com Today's Situation
