what if we remember two things can be true & took time to nuance opposing perspectives?
what if we listen instead of just hearing & sought to understand?
what if we fight to find- even a little- common ground with our other?
can we unclench our jaws and open our hands?
can we remember what we needed as children and be that for our own today?
can we protest hope together and acknowledge the glimmers of it in the darkness?
i hope that we can.
