A courageous exposure of the sexual abuse to which the author was subjected when she began her ordination training for priesthood in the Anglican church. When she eventually discovered that many of her female colleagues had been similarly abused, they collectively initiated complaints through the statutes of church law.

Wisdom from members

I AM CHANGING
Bless the confusion. Let it be.
Commend it to Earth
– like autumn leaves,
scattering, half-rotten,
seeding the future,
becoming fertile food,
for sleeping rose roots.
Be a leaf. Lie low. Be blown.
Receive rain. Fly to Earth.
Become a rose.
I bless the confusion and let be
– between seasons, I am
changing into me
