Great voice over! Smooth word play … tip toe + scuffed shoes = trippin. I may be going rogue here but if the poem is about reminding yourself who you are and realizing your potential has “no ceiling” …. Then the lighter spark to begin is a nice cryptic touch 🤌🏼 was that the intention?

Thanks Jamal! We were shooting for the microfic but when Jacquie dropped her lines, it made sense to call it a poem. I look forward to cowriting more!💜
