There is

By William Laferriere


Often times we feel an ungodly weight upon our shoulders

And it becomes so unbearable.

That through a worldwide pandemic

We’ve allowed our societies to be

So very divisive and loathsome.

That so many women are diagnosed

Or die daily from a heinous BC Dx.

That grifting, lawlessness, and corruption

Quickly displaces civil norms.

That caring for one another

Becomes a sign of weakness.

That every man for himself as modus operandi

Takes hold front and center.

That we can’t even agree

On the message of the many holy books.


Dead Stop!

But through the darkened lens of the above

One can scratch below the surface

And uncover random acts of caring.

And unbiased support

Available to all

That comes without a price tag.

That there exists a line of positivity

Below the gradations of despair

That all, regardless of race, creed, bank account or culture

Can see the light of justice prevailing.

That there is hope

There is intimacy

There is love

There is kindness, and respect.


There is…
