and insist upon our rights,
must we fear how we’re perceived?

Possibly we can
find a way to do so that
doesn’t create fear.

How to shine a light
so bright that the willfully
blind at last can see?

I fear that, in truth,

How best to travel
when the way is dark and we
have lost both our will and our way?

Wallowing blindly,
enduring the tract less void
may be part of the journey.
