Hope has a voice—it’s

what I heard in you:

the rumble of rebirth,

the yawp of rage, the

same impertinent un-

settling new sound

that both of us want

on the page and almost

never find; but some-

one comes into a room

and things shift

suddenly. You can hear

hope in how a tensed

wire thrums, in branch-

es cracking, breaking,

breaking free, saying a

man can change, can

tame his weather, set

his house in order,

true his tone. These

lines are voicing hope

for you, my brother, for

your fierce life and

for my struggling own

…(And then there is

the hope that you might

be alive in this the

way you are in me.)
