Emergency
Was it at night the waters parted and they came in
the night you convulsed and lay on the floor?
Was it drought that left you for dead, or something else
that ate from within
It is no wonder they used leaches
The need to solve problems
the need to talk about it
never do anything
ever
before permission to act
Emergency – a place to calmly go ahead
with no regard for normality; enact the pieta
everything is to be forgiven as the clock strikes one
anything is possible in a storm
walk against the wind and it could tear your coat
walk around the wind and you may sail and ascend
they may take you
upward
in the end
