A Response to Mohsin Hamid’s story, “Of Windows and Doors” from the New Yorker, Nov14, 2016
Whether you live in the USA
Or a war-torn country,
You will have to build community:
Care for the children
Transport the frail
Feed the hungry
Allow sleep
Find your voice
Dance duets and solos
Set boundaries
Listen
Tolerate differences
Wait your turn
For peace is a many faceted phenomena-
tiny and humongous.
You are the force for peace;
it’s creator!
