I
People are looking to me for some sort
of comment and I really don’t have one
I cannot tell anyone how to feel or what
to think about things wonderful or horrible
I can only feel what I am feeling and
devise ways to deal with my realities
I do know how I will behave in the short term
and that is to behave as I have always
Yes I do have opinions and ideas and plans
but I do not yet have a comment
II
I have experienced pendulum swings before
I will experience pendulum swings again
To some the rarity of the unicorn
is reason to preserve – a treasure
To some the rarity of the unicorn
is reason to hunt – a trophy
All eyes up front
All hands on deck
III
I have a pain in my gut now
My instinct is wounded
My fight or flight is activated
I carry a bigger target
I feel displaced
on a precipice
vulnerable to forces
irrationally paranoid
These are the secrets
inside my pocket
safe for now
if not forever
Because I walk on both
sides of the gun
Because I work on both
sides of the aisle
As often as I tell everyone
everything will be alright
I sometimes need someone to
tell me that I will be too
