To dream of distant lands
and distant people is
also to avoid close places
and close people
maybe not actually avoid, but
look away from what’s close by
to change lives, we all must
not look away from what’s close
and what we can influence with our actual presence
we must pay attention instead
so, to dream of what’s distant
seems to be a passive way of losing our
ability to influence what’s close by
and help the people close by
to dream of distant lands and people is
often at the expense of the places we stand
and the people we can touch
