A former student who has a good friend in Paris shared this from a Somali-British poet with one of my colleagues at SPU. Thought it was worth sharing in light of so many sad headlines over the last week.
later that night
i held an atlas in my lap
ran my fingers across the whole world
and whispered
where does it hurt?
it answered
everywhere
everywhere
everywhere.
