Let’s pause in the center
in the awareness of our
Vice President Kamala Harris
who reminds us
of the dreams,
determination, vision,
and victory
that molds, shapes,
and breathes
as us.

She reminds us that
“we do not only dream,
we do.
We do not only see
what has been,
we see what can be.”

“We shoot for the moon
and plant our flag on it.

We are bold and fearless
and ambitious.”

“We will rise up.”

American aspiration demands
equal rights and liberties.

A great experiment
takes great determination,
a will do do the work.

We are transforming the future,
innovating,
educating,
building,
molding,
shaping . . .

. . . . creating,
summoning,
calling,
seeing beyond crisis
to unite,
believe,
and know

we can do this together.
