malkhut shebchesed
(majesty in lovingkindness)
What do you call a hell that
is made of kittens? is what I
think he asks me, so I think.
He appreciates my effort, misplaced. He says
a meowntain. It's Shabbat, I don't have
the ability to save the children today,
can't write, can't give, I'm late anyway.
I appreciate his effort, misplaced. I imagine
it's hard, what he does. He says
he watches the ocean, full of waves,
without expecting each to carry a shell
to his feet. His name is Shawn.
We shake hands. I keep on walking.
