It Rains
By Thailan When
Eyes rested
souls blessed
infinitely
a universe across the heavens feels our pain
war happens
hate stains
I awoke upon another day
with news from my sister
from the news display
in line she prays
silently
unspoken but not unheard
my fears are words
red lights
last night
fight
what is free isn’t always right
what isn’t black
isn’t always white
there is a grayness in between
you came to see it
seen
motivated by simply pleasures
we compare and measure
constantly
consistently
honestly
listen to me
a universe across the heavens feels our pain
war happens
it rains
