Times are uncertain
Perhaps always were.
Now precarious truth
Is underscored.
*
Will we blindly
Keep to what was?
Deluded, sedated
Ignore what is?
*
Or embrace reality
With its mountains and pits.
Find our nobility
Drop our base fears.
*
Let go of our hindrances
Truly co-exist
Courageously, kindly
Be what we are.

This reminds me of Amanda Gorman’s comment that we can BE the light. I agree!

Thank you for the compliment! I believe it’s fear that drives a lot of the negative in this world
