no cups of kindness this year

except among kin and kind


more than ever

no public spirit to hoist false celebrations


more than ever

we are finding our way back to the original meanings


of this season (in all its origins and transformations)

let the heartless strengthen the illusions


that kill us little by little each living day


we are finding our ways back to our clans

and neighbors where lovers know love


and hoist the true cups of kindness
