Dear Reader,

Dear Reader,
If I could give the strength
of all the extra-
ordinary people I know
to you:
a hug, a book of poems, a mural,
a child on the train, a newspaper,
a mic, a backpack full of books,
a guitar, a pencil, a pot of soup,
a concert, a protest, a prayer for peace,
a vision of a new world…
you would cry with joy
and sadness – both –
because you would believe.
— Adam Gottlieb
