only one.

it only takes one. one person to say:

that harelip? i bet we can sew it together.

this disease? i bet we can turn illness against itself.

that outlier? i bet it’s pointing to the true mean.

this confusion? i bet it has intelligence.

that delay? i bet it’s by design.

this broadcast? i bet there’s a transmission hidden inside.

do you hear that noise? i bet there’s a signal trying to come through.

this pain? it’s probably optional.

it only takes one person to connect the dots. to understand that while today’s wounds may have been inevitable, tomorrow’s are not.
