Maybe I'm just a little girl in a big world full of monsters.
Maybe I can't stop even a fraction of them.
But in the end, I'm standing there brandishing my sword,
screaming the battle cry that is pounding in my blood.
I have big dreams; a big voice inside my head calling me
to something greater than all this.
The monsters may come. Let them. I may die,
but I'll die fighting. No one can say I didn't try my hardest.
Isn't that what courage is? Running towards the monster,
rather than away from it?
Maybe I'm a speck in the endless seas of humanity,
drifting in and out on a tide of relentless insanity.
A ragdoll, tossed into the fray of the screaming waves.
Another pair of breasts in the wriggling masses.
But I was born to be Joan of Arc; the heart of a lioness,
consort to scarecrow princes and ready for battle.
Let the Jabberwockys come, let them do their worst.
I am still standing, a giantess with my soul painfully alive.
There is more to me, a little girl in a big world,
than could ever be imagined by the seething oceans.
In the words of Maya Angelou, "Phenomenal woman, that's me."
Maybe I can't stop even a fraction of them.
