In my town square
250 gather in a Southern chill
to chant that war is not the answer.
They speak out to the statues and the few brave wrens.
In the state capitol
troops mass for the rebel flag,
for the old dead and grassed over battlefields.
The heart of my vocational life is to bear authentic and courageous witness.

Two weeks ago on Memorial Day weekend, my husband and I signed up for yet another hike with the Atlanta Outdoor Club.
