may make us see the world afresh, or some new part of it. It may make us from

the deeper, unnamed feelings to which we rarely penetrate." – T.S. Elliot

Savior
voice suppressed.
hands tied.
suffocated and lost.
voices penetrated.
hands shoved.
discriminated and alone.
and my thoughts
they wander in hell
pulling my heart
into the torturous fire.
but with these papers
they patch me up
with these ink and lead
they sew myself back.
