The Weary Activist

           The Weary Activist
           
                   Let the weight of the world 
                       lift off my shoulders. 

                 Let the heaviness of the world 
                         rinse off my hands.

               Let the weariness of this journey 
                          wash off my feet.

                 Let the ugliness of the world 
                          fall from my eyes. 

                    Let the pain of the world 
                   be released from my mind. 

                 Let the cries of the wounded 
                        drain from my ears. 

          Today is for rest. Tomorrow we fight.
