Honesty to Power
Simple truth,
Sharp and clear,
Standing tall
When shadows leer,
Courage drawn
from soul's deep well,
Breaking silence
And every spell.
Don't whisper,
Or tremble, or lie,
Cast your Truth
Across the sky,
Integrity blazes
as a flame,
Broken spirit
Transmuting shame.
Can moral truth
Finally reach
The heart of power
Through powerful speech?
Can it breech the walls
Of fear and doubt
With one triumphant
Holy shout?
Each life, each land,
Each generation
Must eventually
Find out.

Hope is being able
to see that there is light
despite all of the darkness.
Desmond Tutu
The magic of the street
is the mingling of the
errand and the epiphany.
Rebecca Solnit
No one is useless
in this world
who lightens the
burden of it
for anyone else.
Charles Dickens
