THROUGH

“Give way” says the sign

Underneath a bridge.

Oarsmen push the water apart

And it moves

Along that line.

But when I try to move

I feel like I am moving through

People who stand in my way

And I cannot speak.

“Give way” I say. It is a sign

of my inclusion; of theirs too.

I will speak if I have to.
