Radical
©September 18th, 2016
By Vijaya Sundaram
Things take root where they can –
Sandy soil, clay-ey soil, soil rich in humus –
Things take root, and grow.
Ideas grow, too, and minds,
And passion and fervour,
And hatred and mistrust,
And love and kindness.
Plant well, weed well, nurture well.
When radical change happens,
Keep yourself rooted
in that which matters.
Find your soil first.
