Succor

Yesterday 

I spoke to the gods

and they said 

prepare for wild and

unexpected gifts

and they opened their 

hands

and my eyes

giving me flowing abundance 

beyond common delight 

beyond deserving.

I am still having 

trust issues 

but I’m learning to lean in to say 

I need some time

to make art 

to write poetry and music 

the world has been shipwrecked

around me for too long

help me to rescue a few 

people.
