"Soujourner"

SOJOURNER

by Teddy O.

A lifetime of battle

For rights, and undoing wrongs.

Sojourner Truth, her name

By choice, not birth

A Sojourner to “travel up and down the river, showing people their sins

being a sign to them”

Years in bondage Yet freedom with rhetoric

And honored for fighting each of her wars

By being the first person to walk on Mars
