OK

 


It's OK to cry,

though it may just be
circles around myself,
stories that invoke the longing
for some deeper comfort

It's OK to cry, for all that wetness
can melt the lines, can help dissolve
what is harsh, intractable,
what is self-important,
what didn't realize
we are all in this soup together  -
all small, all huge, all holy,
all loved and infinite,
all needed,
all able
to tune the unifying chord.
