Two

A poem.

February 11, 2015

So now

they vow

not one

Across the Middle East, a focus on home, healing, and restored hope

and one

but two

to be

for all

to hear

‘The best reporting assignment of my year.’ A journalist finds joy in Japan.

and see

and join-

ing hand

to hand

they share

an am-

persand

and smile

and stand

a pair

in per-

petu-

ity.
