Can we get a world accent?
Can we get a world accent? Have we opened the way we speak—our very selves—to all?

I’m providing opportunity to crack out of our (collective) shell.

…/Someone says we are incapable/…
My mind does not sit still
It is not made to sit still
Someone says we are incapable
And still
We
Are not incapable
Our minds—intellectual, analyzing
Are incapable
Of heart things
& of the whole
Yet
We
Our hearts
& especially our Whole
Is capable
We are only incapable
When we don’t get out
Of our—Whole’s—way
Be still and know
Than me
Than us
Whole is bigger

…/Someday we/Crack!/…
We’re tightly wound
A ribbon of DNA
Inside the inside of the heart
Of an egg
At any point we can choose
Wind tightly
(We hope to keep the fear out)
Or open
(To let the love out—and in)
Someday we
Crack!
(Then we can fly)
& touch the world
Whole!
