He said: "Not a crutch,
but a shoulder."
Spoke to me as I sat
alone
pondering sacred
surrender.
So imbued in
self-responsibility,
in making do to deny desire
for more.
So scarred/scared feeling a
burden that
none will
bear.
Crutches can't be
trusted.
Any outside aid so easily
denied or
demanding too high a
cost.
Yet shoulder to shoulder,
if shoulder we find
can be the essence of
life
as a gift beyond
price.
My values are not based
on
"left" or "right",
but
wholeness.
It doesn't need to be
about
convincing those who are
opposed,
but encouraging and working
with
those who create and carry
through
useful projects to prove
our case.
