I sigh a lot
in the moments
I let myself
check world news
shootings
drought
war
tyrants
sigh
Grief so broad
it loads me down
a cairn in my gut
I stay with it
feel it
and sigh
sighing is prayer

Yes we pray together.
Several years ago the word "poly crisis" was coined. Not just a multiple of crises, but a convergence--each crisis interacting, amplifying the effects. Signing as prayer. Like breath. Only a little louder.
