I Cling to Whatever Identity I Have
I cling to whatever identity I have,
but I have none,
or I have many.
In the end,
I only have one--
I am human.
I am defined more
by what I am not:
rich, powerful,
a greedy hoarder
of wealth and
power.
In other words,
I am not
a monster.
Fine.
I would rather
be just another
victim, and take
my chances
with every other
sister
and brother.

Psalm 137
By the rivers of Babylon,
there we sat and wept,
when we remembered Zion.
On the willows,
there in its midst,
we hung our harps.
For there, those who
had taken us captive
requested words of song from us,
those who were afflicting us
demanded joy.
"Sing us some songs
of Zion."
How shall we sing
the Lord's song
on foreign soil?
If I should forget you,
O Jerusalem,
may my right hand
go also to oblivion,
may my tongue
stick to my palate
if I do not remember you,
if I do not set Jerusalem
at the head of all my joy.
Remember,O Lord,
the sons of Edom,
on the day
of Jerusalem,
saying "destroy it,
destroy it,
down to its
foundations."
O daughter of Babylon,
you despoiler,
blessed is the one
who will repay you
for what you have done to us.
Beatus qui tenebit et adlidet
parvulos tuos ad petram.

Length of Years
Length of years
is no excuse for anything,
but rather
to the contrary.
How long does it take
to learn the lessons
of many lifetimes?
