when
we choose to run off
and join the circus where
the funny haired clown
is the master of ceremonies
rather than living in communities
where the gentle voices of children
sing songs of hope and grace,
and when
we listen to the voices of all
who are embittered by those
false narratives spun by liars
instead of the stories of those
who were willing to give their all
so that those they would never meet
might have life to its fullest, we
should not wonder why life
seems to be unraveling before us.
