Iron Silk… By Toni L.A. Cross

See my fears

Taste these tears

Over many, many years


Melt to froth

Powder moth

Spun into fine spider cloth


Feel my doubt

Quench a shout

Mask it with generic pout


Boil down

Never frown

Become every person’s clown


Hide a thought

Don’t get bought

Become iron fully wrought

My name is Toni Clegg, and I was raised on a farm in the far north of the United States. I love to read and write and I hope to use those hobbies in a greater way in the days to come. One of my passions is using whatever influence I have to make a difference in the world.
