The door
has been unlocked
beckoning all
to step in and sit.
Will eyes
consider the big picture
or will they
focus on a trivial detail?
Will ears
heed the countless pleas
or will they
echo beguiling blather?
Will hearts
warm up to healing compassion
or will they
congeal like a winter pond?
Will minds
forage for facts
Or will they
settle for effortless excuses?
It depends
Will we
listen?
Will we
hear?
Will we
see?
Will we?
