MLK 2011

lead them not into illusion,
but reality. fortify

their bones and souls
with vision and fact.

teach them magic
is science and science

is magic. invite
them to be color-blind

without putting the nuances
of spectrum in the garbage.

allow them to be human. invite
and encourage thought.

be kind.
and thank

you. costs nothing,
and nothing is open

so whomever
and whatever

can grant
this wish of mine.

the blessing
simply rebounds.

Catch!

(MLK B-day 2011)
