Don’t let not knowing who to mail it to
stop you from sending praise. Just drop
gratitude anywhere, and everywhere, and—
guaranteed—it’ll get where it’s going.
Praise the connections and contingencies,
the blocks and bruises, the stupid choices
that led to this dreamy-eyed kid kissing you.
Praise every worn corner of concrete.
This is beautiful soul food. Thank you for being here and being you.
