“Blessed Hope”

blessed hope, coming across

it when you least expect

it like a great thrift

store find, something

i can really sink my

soul into and believe

in, the feeling that all

the madness of the world

isn’t as random as it

seems and there can be

purpose even in the most

extreme circumstances, a

freeing up of the mind

to experience more, a

going beyond the limits

of what i think i know
