Dear Poetry:
I seek your wisdom
In this moment of sorrow
Of grief
I seek the stillness
And closeness to self and others
I ask you to let me use you as a vehicle
To reconcile and mend my heart
In this healing journey of mine
The killings and deaths increment every day
Like recurrent nightmares
To our collective psyches
And I know that we shall overcome
