For The Sake Of Strangers, by Dorianne Laux


For The Sake Of Strangers

No matter what the grief, its weight,
we are obliged to carry it.
We rise and gather momentum, the dull strength
that pushes us through crowds.
And then the young boy gives me directions
so avidly. A woman holds the glass door open,
waits patiently for my empty body to pass through.
All day it continues, each kindness
reaching toward another – a stranger
singing to no one as I pass on the path, trees
offering their blossoms, a retarded child
who lifts his almond eyes and smiles.
Somehow they always find me, seem even
to be waiting, determined to keep me
from myself, from the thing that calls to me
as it must have once called to them –
this temptation to step off the edge
and fall weightless, away from the world.

 by Dorianne Laux, from What We Carry, 1994

  15. I was twice a victim of a cryptocurrency scam lead by romance trying to find the right partner.I needed my credit cleaned so I can get a place to live with my family. I had repos, late payments, bankruptcy, judgments was filed and I needed someone to help me without scamming me because it was my family I wanted the housing for.such as hacking emails, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, note changes, deleting criminal records, credit and debit refill, reloading insurance documents, lost or lost file recovery, background check . I decided to narrow my search to a trusted credit site , luckily for me, I found several good reviews on ARON LUCS a trusted credit repair specialist. I contacted him on;ARONLUCSHACKCOMPANY AT GMAIL.COM wHATTS APP +1‪9014683874 and after discussing the process, we got started. He raised my score from 456 to 760 , posted good tradelines on my report, deleted the bankruptcy and the judgments and increased my credit line to $60k. All late payments appeared as on time payment and he effected the changes across all 3 credit bureaus. His job is legit and untraceable.I can’t thank him enough and I knew i owe him this.
