“From Sea to Shining Sea”
   by Mary Susan Gast

Shoved beyond our fascination with our own experience,
We spin and tumble
Into a future more grand and compelling
Than anything we’d pictured
With our squinty and suspicious imaginations,
While huddled, narrow-hearted,
By the narrow hearth of the habitual.

Celebrate!
With the foreigners who abide among you
With the outsiders and outcasts,
All the bounty.

Gloria a Dios!
