day 265

 "And the crowds asked him, ‘What then should we do?’” Luke 3:10

 

we could try

tearing down walls,

to build houses with

the bricks,

we could stop yelling

and try listening,

we might offer encouragement

and not justice,

but we are too busy

asking the same question

over and over, hoping

we are given something

grand to do, rather

than caring for the forgotten

where you are to be found
