POEM: Nov 4, 2008

The change we've sought for too long
has come at last.
Let it leak inward, and destroy our masks.
Let it end the bleak, corrosive moments,
Let us be forgetful of mean things said.
Let it bring life to the hearts of the dead.
For we each one of us needs the other,
so become a sister, and become a brother.
To work is to be free, so be free and live!
And then?
Forgive,
Forgive,
Forgive,
Forgive.
