All Together Now
We’re all in this together
We can see (if we can’t say)
Though how we feel about this
Differs like night and day
We’re all in this together
Except for the few
Whose calling it is to try and get through
To those hung up
On being a who
Who?
I can’t stop thinking
For fear I won’t be me
For fear that all I know
Will be as absent
As can be
For fear that such a loss
Will be unbearable
or worse
Is there no one here
To follow or to curse?
For fear that all I represent
Is writing on a wall
That collapses into bits and pieces
Learning how to fall
