“I am the American heartbreak-
The rock on which Freedom
Stumped its toe-
That Jamestown made
Long ago.”
Langston Hughes

–Vulnerability-
I have no weapon
And wars rage around me
I have no patience
While the world waits for things to get better.
I want to get closer
Yet I feel so far away.
I need rest
But my mind won’t stop moving.
I have sought refreshment
In dry flat places,
I explored darkness
Searching for a glimmer of light.
I know I cannot
get to the other side alone.
I pray for the sacred companion to journey with me,
To “lead me beside the still waters,
And restore my soul”
“Yea, thou I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil”.
May it be so.
