There was a time when I would wake
on a summer morning feeling light and free.
These days, I wake and wonder,
will today be the day the enemy overtakes me?
I used to embrace uncertainty,
with its tiny green seedlings of possibility.
Now, with so much at stake
(democracy, decency, survival),
I pray instead.
