JUSTICE |
|

|

Doll Artist: Michelle Wolf - Hastings, MN
I am justice and I am blindfolded, not blind. I see no truth, no fairness,
no vindication. The justice system has failed. I turn my sight inward and
see strength, dignity, and healing. I have no mother. I am the mother. My
body and soul are pierced with the arrows of violence, molestation, and
lies. I carry my own arrows. Arrows of calm, caring, and truth. This long,
excruciating battle has sent me to my knees. Yet I am not beaten. I kneel
on the collective soul of female energy from women who have supported me
in my fight. I carry much baggage. Baggage from past abuses. I carry a jar
of tears and a container of screams. I carry the
souls of three little girls. The ones I could not save. I carry my inner
child in a small square box tightly closed. I dare not open it. I am the
mother. I carry the staff of never ending strength handmade by Lynne, just
for me. I am special. I carry my arrows in a pack filled with peace. Peace
given to me by the energy I feel from all of the people that truly care.
My horns grew from hitting my head on anything hard. My tail from always
needing to protect my back. I have learned well. I have the power. I am
the mother.
There may be no justice for the innocent this time, but there is still
cosmic justice to be had. I will teach my daughters that the true winners
are those who can heal themselves.
