 RESOLVE
by Charlotte Perkins Gilman
(1860-1935) Poet, Novelist, Lecturer

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