Miguna Miguna on JKL Show/Photo by Standard Digital PART I - Published on Facebook on March 14, 2016 11:30 pm “We have no right to believe that freedom can be won without struggle.” – Che Guevera.

NAKED

But you still know as much about her as a book you once found, but never got around to opening. ~Beautiful Poem
