A life well lived, a hero gone

A tiny woman
Glasses
Lace collars
Raised with a ghost
Breaking barriers from
The day she started
Law School

She knew she had to be
Better
Stronger
Smarter
More
Than any male
In the same place

An amazing woman
Making it through Harvard
Fighting for
Equality
Justice
Freedom
Never giving up

Fighting for gender equality
In person
Before courts
Not just for women
But for everyone
From caretaker’s benefits
To access to alcohol
From VMI access
To abortion rights
To marriage rights
And beyond

A strong woman
Able to bench press
Exercise
Work
Past when others
Would give up
Pushing…
