The challenge of re-entry


Locked for a year in comparative isolation, 
We’re now being invited 
To slowly let the colors of community 
Leach back into our world; 
To step out beyond what feels like safety 
Into that which we’ve now been taught to fear. 
How cautiously and consciously 
Will we redefine our boundaries? 
Now that the tide has changed,
What will we keep on keeping out, 
And what will we allow to seep back in?
