A theatre friend in Tehran questions:
she is afraid now.
No, not just online
Fearful in every sentence
In every breath or thought
Her friends want to do more
Than post comments
Whether frustration or contentment
practice helps, perhaps
May we be present
May the answers find us
May our deepest senses prevail
