there is nothing more confining...

brick-by-brick
we all
have someone
that we love
who over time
has become
imprisoned
by misinformation
—
brick-by-brick
—
who’s assembled
a view
of the world
closed-off
from reality
—
brick-by-brick
—
who seems easier
to fool
than to convince
that they’ve-even
been fooled
enter the artist
the job
of the artist
of the poet
is to dismantle
the bricks
of fear
ignorance
& conformity
—
brick-by-brick
—
to help tear
down the wall
that divides us
one
from another
—
brick-by-brick
—
to build bridges
where walls
of algorithmic
confinement
once stood
building bridges
not all bridges
we build
will be crossed
—
build them anyway
thank you David, Nick, Richard, Roger, & Syd.
I'm building bridges of hope
I hope they are strong enough!
May your week be kind Darren 💚
