We prayed together
After class
Before returning to
Husbands, girlfriends, children, boos
We connected
Closed eyes
Bowed and raised heads
We joined together
Twenty-seven black, brown, white, yellow, red pairs of hands
We loosed lights out, hunger, busted tail lights
Relationships teaching more than we feel like learning right now
We prayed together
In the name of Jesus and all holy
We are we
There is no me
That does not include them
Nor a them where I am excluded
We opened eyes
Let tears fall
We hugged
Let ourselves be
We are all red story women
All of us
Connected by love, stories, spirit, breath
And red
