may we relate

 

oh to be a cop and get to
punch/shoot/kick/smother
out our frustrations on the job
 
 
 
how about drop the assumptions and
expectations, rather, develop relationships.
 
As I observe all the misery, loneliness, angry hatred
spread through our social spheres, it occurs to me
what we are missing, what we are needing, what
could give us all more of what we need to live well,
is creating real, meaningful relationships
 
 
 
not really rejection,
more nonconnection
with this world
 
 
 
3 dimensional reality
can’t be circumscribed
by 2 sides.
 
 
 
The room is here.
People living out loud, accepted.
Messy, outside expected.
We are, every bit as much as you.
Don’t expect your view to rule.
Understand, definitions are expanding.
Caught in the scariness of change,
along with the hope.
We are only beginning.
