Chilly South Jersey morning
And cold post dawn riders
‘Good morning beautiful’ greeting
From one of my fellow passengers
Talk of the cold, of Jersey, of Camden
Of people, of New Hampshire, of moving,
Talk of the world, history, where we’ve been,
Of being, living, and belonging.
Riders on a South Jersey bus
Finding refuge from the cold
Sharing stories, some of us
Finding kinship in memories told.

I am nobody’s Daughter
Born of blood, born of water
Not respected
but rejected
I became nobody’s Daughter
I became nobody’s Daughter
Fighting through mud and blood and water
For the right to be
for the right to be me
I became nobody’s daughter
I am nobody’s daughter
With a heart full of love that is stronger than blood
With a heart full of love that is stronger than water.
Pity those who made me
Nobody’s daughter
