Thanks L.B., the fate indentured life is something that not many understand and it also manifests itself in other forms. And our awareness brings the light of amelioration.
Your beautiful tribute brought my attention to the video of Phyllis Wheatly's words sung so soothingly as the painting took shape - a most interesting and inspiring poetess whose pierceing perception held me spellbound - - thank you for sharing her wonderful talent Rik.
A tribute to a short but both strange and amazing life about which I had no prior notion. So Thanks, Rik.
I have to spend some more time cogitating upon your poem now.....
