Droll

The fact that we’re here to save the world

doesn’t mean we have to be

serious all the time. There’s room

in the moments between

to be droll

There’s enough power here, after all,

that there’s no need to strain or struggle —

there’s room to be silly and soulful,

there’s plenty of space to laugh.

The world will be fine.
