Days that blow hot and cold in ways too complex to explain, when you wonder if you ever really get to understand anything or anyone, least of all yourself.
Contradictions
Yes, I am strong,
but you are thoroughly fooled
if you think that is all.
Optimistic, yes,
resilient, robust but try, for a moment
to estimate costs.
Calm, but consider
what lies over,
what lies under,
rolling across landscapes
distant thunder.
No strength without weakness,
no hope without fear.
Yes, I have power.
I also shed tears.
