why are they so angry?

tune into how their grief is loud

and disarrayed and confusing

and threatens to make you feel bad

stay with these feelings

now hold these feelings in front of your eyes

to filter the images you are seeing.

This is called Balance.

SUPERPOWERS

I’m having them again,

my crazed revenge daydreams,

my Palestinian-in-Wonderland hallucinations.

The real world is disjointed

the words around me

make no sense

but none of this is carpool-appropriate conversation.

My children roll their eyes

when I launch into one of my corrections

or yell back at the car radio.
