Flowing from within the void
Is the entrenched fervour of misery:
Disguised as something hopeful
It can hide the hurtful truths.
Few want to hear withinness,
Betweenness, connectedness, humaneness.
Rather they would have us believe
That what is risen is true
what is risen is hate
hate of selfhood
hate of other
hate.
