A Global Participatory Social Journalism Platform
An evocative and profound poem by Meher – exclusively for Different Truths.
Blue-black toe You are just two inches of my foot At the edge of my three feet long leg which is only a third of my whole body How dare you stop me from climbing mountains!

In Meher’s brief poem she wastes no words in conjuring up her disdain for her foot, as a symbol, for things & events that dictate all of our choices.
Salute to her courage and inspiring spirit.
