In a Doldrum

No winds at sea.
Ship's sails
at half-mast,
waiting for a breeze.
Hoping to
set sail
once again.

Flags at half-mast
across countless nations.
Hoping to be safe -
to unfurl
the world's Spirit.


Once again.


Just one week ago, on Friday, November 13th
a horrific attack occurred in Paris, France.
