We Need Each Other Now - Maya Spector

[Larry Robinson]

We Need Each Other Now 

We need each other now.
In truth, we always have.
But as things disintegrate,
as chaos and disorder reign,
we become like bones,
scattered and
stripped clean of all
that is inessential.
Let’s reassemble ourselves,
the way Isis did with Osiris,
or La Loba with her wolf bones.
Let’s find a new configuration,
this part mine, that part yours –
Perhaps something original 
will emerge, or
something ancient.
Let’s light a candle now, friends,
so together we might see 

how to begin.
