all this heavy happening now

On the door, injustice beats,
beats

I open to let it in—it’s thick, dirty cloud gusts, unavoidably angry through the room,
this ugly

it uncoils my peace, unsettles my scene, blows out my warm

upsets, knocks me down,
down

My heart disturbed

all this pain in one world, all this heavy happening now,
now

this rape, this war, this human selling human,
this ugly

this twelve year old girl, this tear glistening on precious cold cheeks

on the door now she beats,
beats

an unavoidably beautiful face,
 this ugly

all this heavy happening now,
now

all this heavy happening now, to her
