I am borrowing words today. The world has overwhelmed me. 

But! we know the way out: poetry. It’s time for 30 Poems in November. It’s time to turn words into action. Donations to the Center for New Americans help our new neighbors in so many ways: ESL classes, citizenship classes, mentoring. Making a new home in a place less strange.

Poetry is the art of creating imaginary gardens with real toads. (Marianne Moore) Let’s join together to help real people in real time. Please donate if you comfortably can. Together we can stitch up one corner of this crazy quilt of a world. Thank you.
