It's very clear
that I'm not welcome here,
and yet,
if I turn back,
will anyone accept
the evidence I bring
of rising tides
and continental shifts,
that the living water they crave
is close at hand?
This narrow edge between
what is theirs and what is yours
grows daily more uncomfortable;
how can we dissolve the boundaries,
declare all of this landscape
Ours?
