Boom Tov
KB Goodkin
A picture A GoLive on Facebook Avert my eyes but I have seen it . Seared into my mind as my lids close the tears fall
A breathe A moment Waiting for the phone to ring They add up
So many moments Waiting
A crash A bang The walls shake and the ground rumbles A boom tov
Mr lizard climbs down the wall I hear the insects talk to one another like it ' s any other saturday
No sleep comes Fear of what is outside the door
What is outside the window We sing to keep our humanity
We sing to keep our pulse
I danced once In a field of flowers
In a thicket of trees With love in my heart I danced
I saw their fates I saw their fear
