When I ask
my students why
they have joined our writing circle\,
they may say "I need to let my love
happen." Or "I
need to make a book
of letters to my wife while I still ca
n."
Or "After I was robbed\, I needed
the sto
ry of what I cherished
that was gone."
So we
sing praise. Tell legends
of the good. Story the lives of
simple
saints and worthy witnesses.
Speak com
fort to fear
And truth to power.
Say what is.
