SOLIDARITY’S QUESTION
by Sister Lou Ella Hickmansolidarity’s question: who will embrace such present sorrow
I am only one, but still I am one . . . but I can do something.
—Edward Everett Hale, "Lend a Hand"
i sit here
alone in the chapel
a dark desert night
Jesus, have mercy on me a great sinner
i breathe in then out
Jesus, have mercy on us
i breathe slower
Jesus, have mercy on me a great sinner
slower into the dark
Jesus, have mercy on us
the clock chimes the quarter hour
Jesus, have mercy on me a great sinner
i sit before All Hunger, Thirst and Longing
to plead in the silence for grace among the violences
Jesus, have mercy
