you

“I am God, and also henceforth I

         am He;

   there is no one who can

         deliver from my hand;

   I work and who can hinder it?”  Isaiah 43:13

those walls we think

will keep out hope

   will crumble;

those words of hate

we use to bully others

   will turn to dust;

those fears we wrap

tight around us

   will unravel;

those people we follow

because they play

to the worst in us

   will trip and fall;

for we are we,

while you are you.
