Our hearts were broke<\/strong>
\nA cache sow, well, spent<\/strong>
\nIn solvent<\/strong>
\nIn life<\/strong>
\nLong<\/strong>
\nYearnings<\/strong>
\nTeaming tsunamis of solidarity<\/strong>
\nOf the largesse kind<\/strong>
\nPoor<\/strong>
\nOver us<\/strong>
\nTorn as under<\/strong>
\nA heavy wait<\/strong>
\nPre-seeding<\/strong>
\nA compelling yield<\/strong>
\nAs if<\/strong>
\nSome bank erupt<\/strong>
\nReigning<\/strong>
\nThe affluence<\/strong>
\nOf won another<\/strong>
\nIn tsunamis of serendipity<\/strong>
\nHaving pre-pared us<\/strong>
\nSeeing in owed daze<\/strong>
\nAs broke<\/strong>
\nOpen<\/strong>
\nAs chambers and vessels<\/strong>
\nSuited fore rivers of love<\/strong>
\nFlowing inevitably<\/strong>
\nThrew us<\/strong><\/p>\n

This poem is about what seems to be a necessary heart-rendering process of our hearts breaking before they can fully pour love out into the world. \u00a0I strongly suspect that this is the way our heart of hearts is built. \u00a0Much like soil, our hearts are tilled til compassion gives root to patience and grace-filled kindness. \u00a0This too fold process is upending to our less mature and superficially\u00a0romantic fields of dreams. \u00a0\"Real<\/a>The hard edges of injustice cleave\u00a0us as surely as the serendipitous realities of unmerited kindness and generosity. \u00a0While the specific injustices and grace that we each experience is unique, our heart of hearts flourishes in solidarity with others. \u00a0The companionship and mutual support that flows through those who recognize themselves as being in the same boat binds us in one accord and harmonizes our souls so we can walk together as won people. \u00a0Only when our love pours out into the world, not bound and limited to vain vessels of our own, do our hearts function at full — nay overfull! — capacity. \u00a0\"OCCUPY<\/a>With love flowing through us, we are never broke; we have become holy, awe together, and udderly teeming with plenty. \u00a0In the process, our mortal hearts, like many earthen vessels, are thrown for a loop, only to be torn as under. \u00a0And for awe that, our heart of hearts is fashioned for sow much more. \u00a0Hearts united beat more than blood could ever dictate. \u00a0May our hearts never brake, pouring into the world with awe of our untamed\u00a0hopes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
