Untitled

We have to write poems.
We have to wash up the dishes
and we have no clean clothes.

The children need to be taught.
They need to be picked up after school,
given healthy snacks, and have
their TV time monitored.

The churches need to fill
with prayer, with that
particular silence,
and then empty again.

And yet, how can we?
