let's see what we can do

articulating wrong from right
attempting calm in midst of fright
distinguishing a shaft of light -
it's not just point of view.

loosening what's far too tight
corrective lenses, better sight
bringing gentleness to might -
if we won't work, then who?

finding in the wind, a kite
digging in the dark for bright
gardening instead of blight -
i'm just the same as you.

no more black and no more white
climbing for much more than height
a life more sensuous than slight -
let's see what we can do.
