Hart Crane’s “The Bridge” rewritten

“There’s no . . . baptism of desire” — Honor Levy

“For the people who have been hurt and counted out but have never stopped believing that in our country anything is possible” — Kamala Harris

How many chained dawns till Liberty?
Eyes on screens — freedom?
I am in reach, within your arms?

How long till Walls Down?
Out of the streets?
I no longer have to live alone without you?

Till a reward as bright and certain as Christian hell?
