It Could Be Worse
Nov. 16th, 2024 11:15 amyou could stub your toe
you could be lost
you could be broke
you could lose your home
you could have taught without lying
you could have walked down the street unafraid
you could have expressed joy without flinching
you could have held your head high
you could be starving
you could go blind
you could be on fire
you could have flesh eating bacteria
you could have been understood
you could have been welcome
you could have reconciled in the glow
you could have flowed freely through community
you could have cancer
you could lose all your bones
you could be dead
you could be dismembered
you could have seen those you love grow
you could have thrived
you could have been free
you could have watched the children flourish
