RED DRESS

Red dress.

Hanging from branches
of bare bone
trees in the month of May.

Red dress.

Visually, giving voice
to those
who’ve been silenced.

Red dress.

Hauntingly beautiful
as the
life you represent. 

May 5 is the National Day of Awareness and Action for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls and Gender diverse people.
