Fetching Us From Where We Fall (Original Poem)

Here we are
adrift...
in a maze
of narrow opinions,
everyone so
quick to whip out
their ragged flags
to wave.

Hurling headlong
into the breach
of the day,
we see the horrors
of how quickly
life can turn,

but just as easily
the winds
can rush
into the void
of our
empty spaces
and our
lonesome hours,
blowing away
the tangle of
our problems,

stripping us
of all
uncertainties,
fetching us
from where we fall.
