Only by creating peace within our own mind and helping others to do the same can we hope to achieve peace in this world.
I wish I could take language And fold it like cool, moist rags. I would lay words on your forehead. I would wrap words on your wrists. 'There, there,' my words would say - Or something better.

I wish I could take language And heal the words that were the wounds You have no names for.
