Recap 2022
the shortest day demands the shortest story
unless that story is about the dark then
the longest night demands the longest story
they are now saying that people like people
because of who they are and not possibly
only because of their contributions
which makes so little sense because
that is simply not enough data to
base confident attributions otherwise
i thought that there would be fewer
things that i did not understand
at the age i have become
but the more i know the more
i come to understanding that
i know significantly nothing
privilege is a concept i cannot
comprehend because it blinds
everything in its golden pathway
who are we and who am i
in particular because
how does one get to be here
through fight and struggle
through wit and determination
to be the very best all the time
the right and the wrong
and the morally ambiguous
and the all too easily justifiable
forces us into positions to defend
for right or wrong
but we are data bound nonetheless
with the weight of history and
the weight of entire populations
we stand for what we believe
so here we are indeed
alone and all together now
this is the us we created
the longest night demands the longest story
unless this story is about the light then
the shortest day demands the shortest story
2022 the end
