it should be enough

.
“it should be enough” I shout
silently
to the sky

“it should be enough” I pray
helplessly
to us all

“it should be enough” I think

Through so many
thousands
of years
if this endless
sorrow and pain
has a purpose
it should be
enough
to
break
us through
to some other
power or consciousness
consciousness or power
to some other
break us
through
to
to

“it should be enough”
I write
hoping for peace
