Hands are unbearably beautiful.
They hold on to things. They let things go.

this life is for living
don't #delay
raise your body from the earth
even if it weighs a million pounds, let
your heart carry the gift of sorrow
ravens flutter from your chest
the forest twist its roots into your skull
let love find you in this place
singing in the moon's weary light

Laugh at life, pain,
And absurd memories.
The seriousness of the future
Belies the folly of the past.

Wear pain like a habit,
Proud and devout,
As life unfolds
Incident by incident.

Embrace failures,
Honor the mind
That stumbles,
And smile at
Your flawed nature.

Are there dangers
other than the pandemic
bearing down on us?

Yes, unfortunately,
there are dangers
other than the pandemic
bearing down on us.

Yes, unfortunately,
there are dangers
bearing down on us
and yet they still include
the pandemic.
