Unbearable Lightness Of Being
-night-
Sweaty, in my favourite cat shirt
We walk through the snow back to her place
And laugh about how many denim vests we saw at the lesbian dance party
And about how many people we both knew there
She tells me how her radio show inspired a kid to come out
And I'm not surprised
Because she has a gift of stubborn optimism
there is weight to the lightness of being
there is meaning
