Everywhere

Friday, July 15th, 2016

The news is horrid. The world is on fire. How can anyone heal when there are new wounds daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, lifetimes?

Later that night
I held an atlas in my lap
Ran my fingers across the whole world and whispered
where does it hurt?
It answered
everywhere.
everywhere.
Everywhere.

-Warsan Shire
