“A canoe having passed through dangerous waters

finally reaches calm water.”

At dawn on this election day

It was as if heard the loud creaking of a ship,

Our fragile yet infinitely capable America

as she squeezes through the narrowed way,

Jason and the Argonaunts

are we, in multiple of thousands.

Our vessel, so well imagined by so many

will hold true and come through

this fearsome portal.

Courage and Mercy are with us.
