Reflections on the Art of Living

A New Day is Dawning

​Like it or not, 
Attempt to deny and defy it, 
March about it, scream about it,
Shout about it, wail and flail, 
Proudly wave your pitiful grasp of patriotism;
Pretend our laws don’t apply to you 
or your privileged few;
Tweet your toddler-like fingers off, 
Still won’t matter.
We’re not better;
We are more. 
More colors. 
More resilient. 
We’re all imperfect, 
but we can admit it.
Our roots hold fast even in storms
Because we go deep down
We know deep down 
We’re all intertwined. 
And we are growing 
Our shared future, even for you,
Like it or not, for all.
Soon you won’t matter;
A new day is dawning.

    Writing offers an opportunity to clarify my thoughts and feelings. Often these relate to my art and may offer insights about my work. I learn from engaging with others and welcome comments.
