Show me how the laws of physics
are just a subset of the law of Love,
and, as such, cannot run counter
to infinitude of care

Show me how the fact that we are treasured
overcomes the story of our being left
alone and fragile in a world of danger,
consigned to struggle or to sink bereft

Show me that this isn’t an illusion,
a myth for privileged and strong young men  –
show me how it works with full inclusion,
so we can claim our heaven home again.
