appropriate
they way we interact
the words we use
daily attire
general mannerisms
everything has a response
pulled from the mind
thought from the collective
past interactions
determining people
to find what is
appropriate
-Jennie Nawrocki
seeing the world
vast in its cultures
separated by land and sea
borders define countries
though don’t inhibit
personalities reveal
inherent need
to gather respect
amongst the population
compassion spreads
from person to person
through daily interactions
unseemingly have
nothing important
except to take
that a maybe
the most relevant
impact of tomorrow
-Jennie Nawrocki
gloom is not functional
as if the ceiling was
falling in
crumbling around
finding stability
reams of strength
through the rubble
using the unstable floor
as points to briefly
step towards a clearing
where gathering
a base of support
within and without
one deletes the mess
gloom before shattered
-Jennie Nawrocki
the soft glow
fills the room
of the lights
stranded around edges
allowing for freedom
relaxation of conversation
getting to know someone
more intimately
than ever before
their dislikes and likes
amongst stories
experiences and revelations
allow people
to melt their walls
stripping the outside layers
until there is nothing left
except the bare souls
revealed to each other
