RE: Stranded at the Border of Compassion—Singing Immigrant Blues in the USA

in #writing6 years ago

My heart breaks for you, and your friends, and for us, the very ideals of this country, its very soul, such as we'd like it to be. Such as it ought to be....

"I’ll die alone
In the salt. No, my body will be found
With millions of bodies, all of them brown." - tears

Thank you, for your compassion, dear Inna. As you well know, we’re in this together, and that’s what hurts... how we’re hurting ourselves, with this unconscious living.

But, on good days (and there are many), I remind myself of all the quiet heroism that goes unreported & the countless decent people of conscience who speak up, all the time.

This, too, shall pass, it must. We will remember the semi-shameful ‘daze’ as growing pains. Evolution beckons...

‘The moral arc of the universe is long, but it bends towards justice.’

Only Love, Yahia
