Joy as a form of resistance

from Nighthawks by Noon Salah Eldin

From an Instagram post, poetry_at_noon:


May we be a candle in someone’s dark night

May we be messengers of peace

May we be a voice to the voiceless

We hold to Joy as we think of others

As we try to navigate ways to help them

We hold to Joy knowing our words, posts, protests might reach people to raise awareness about injustice

I hold to Joy as a form of Resistance
