Be it Resolved...

Resolve
by Charlotte Perkins Gilman

To keep my health!
To do my work!
To live!
To see to it I grow and gain and give!
Never look behind me for an hour!
To wait in weakness, and to walk in power;
But always fronting onward to the light,
Always and always facing towards the right.
Robbed, starved, defeated, fallen, wide astray - -
On, with what strength I have!
Back to the way!
