THE DAY AFTER THE DISASTER OF LAST NIGHT’S ELECTIONS, OR HOPE
We watched
knowing what we watched
worse than unbearable
funny there’s always an And Yet
maybe now
maybe soon
there will be a better way
for us all
if we don’t stop fighting
if we don’t stop looking
if we don’t stop
Esther Cohen writes poems, novels, and other things, including a new poem every day.
