What is the key to peace?
The solution?
So often the reality
is well-intentioned people
holding hands in solidarity
while walking in opposite directions.
Fingers clasped
they pull in different ways
tunneling ahead on a path they feel is the only correct one.
How many pause,
talk to one another,
take the time to set a course
so that they may instead walk together,
collectively strategizing towards
liberation
for the collective.
