Take a moment this morning to think of your favorite poem, the words that re-sync your voice to your soul, that reach down in you to pull some bit of forgotten self to the surface and look it squarely in the eye with compassion and fascination. Roll the words around in your mouth, taste the bitter and the sweet. Then speak.
