Pandemic Poem:  No Fear

Photo and Poem by Angie Mack*

There is no fear
when you know that
the motive in your heart
is love
There is no fear when
you know that your reasons
are pure

Yes. Mistakes happen.
Imperfection is human.
But mostly?
There is misunderstanding.

And assumptions
of intentions
and generations of biases
and egos and not knowing
and confusion
then mistrust
and fear
and the break down
and the shake down
and it all comes tumbling down
