I believe
At such a point in my life, in space and time
I am seated at my desk
With the work I’m supposed to execute put aside
To write about this brief belief story
One that ignites a perpetual flame in my heart
I cannot begin to say how many times I have tried
Tried to get a seat at the table
But what I only seem to take home
Are stories that begin with ‘Thank you for your interest’
And end with ‘We wish you the best in your future endeavours’
I am glad to say that I will take that up in good faith
To soldier on because I believe a ceasefire is nigh.
