Occupy (11/9/11)

acknowledge the reality
assert your power
peaceably assemble and make your voices heard

we may not sit together
in quiet conversation
I fear

you come running to love
but meet a closed gate instead.
and yet,

you come running again --
all the world should learn
to love the way you do

Into A Fall

you live in my lap
as I drive through the wind
and struggle to breathe
