I needed a moment so I wrote a couple of poems and recorded a podcast show because I just needed a moment to be.

Adjust
Breathe in
know that it is
your time to feel what you
need to feel, your time to have a
moment
Wanda Toby @Litevi

I Need a Moment

Ya’ll gonna give me a moment

A moment to feel what I feel
To sit in this pocket of disappointment
To let the letdown flow over me and settle
in the unsettled pits of my stomach
To bubble and gurgle and seethe
Just need a moment to adjust or
readjust to the dimming of hope that was ignited
a glow that dared to burn too bright in a time when darkness rallied
Ya’ll gonna give me a moment
A moment to feel what I feel
To get it together and figure it out
Am I going to fight or watch it burn
A moment to acknowledge my exhaustion
To cry at the loss of humanity at the choking hands of hubris
Just need these few minutes before
I gotta go to work

- Wanda Toby
