Eventually

No, not ready at all
to feel the deep earth
resonate, they said
as they marched
in time to the rising
and the setting of the sun.
Perhaps tomorrow
the line will practice
meandering just a bit
from the center 
holding disparity 
tightly together.
Someone will
eventually
step aside
to intentionally collect
what the others 
have left behind.
And, perhaps, then,
the disquiet of each heart
will begin to be heard.
