Maggie's Poet’s Statement:

I decided I wanted to write a very metaphor heavy poem for this project to convey my true feelings about slavery and Theophilus’ story. I feel that metaphors can help me better convey my emotions authentically and honestly. Theophilus’ story, and the Witness Stones project as a whole, has inspired me to question the history all around me, and has taught me that it is okay to have new feelings about it.
