Wallow

Picking up the pieces . . .

Wallow


We wallow in our pain


  let it sit awhile


  stir it, sift it


Without swallowing it.


We let it drip and drip into our space


Until the last drop has joined the place


Where wounds are mended.


Our spirit takes over


    bringing us peace and purpose.


 And our hearts begin to move forward.

Four more years of Bush and we may all be homeless, or ashes where the bomb went off. I have known a number of homeless people over the years. Most were homeless because they gave up. They quit fighting. It's a tough old world, and nobody ever promised us a rose garden. I grew up poor, and I am still fighting to survive after all these years. Nothing comes easy for me for some reason. I can't even afford to have my book reprinted. Anyway, I'm glad you have a positive outlook on things.

Wonderful poem, and wonderful is what you're doing to help the homeless, Laurie. Kudos to you!
Reviewed by Karen Cino 11/8/2003
Beautifully written. Yes, we have a very big homeless problem in New York City. Some homeless because they lost their jobs and homes.

And our hearts begin to move forward. Excellent words. I hope that through your books and words that people will open up their hearts to those less foruntate then themselves.

Awesome write.
