Ive never seen a poem like this and I LOVE it. I read it as if someone was choking or sobbing or angry in the spaces between the words. Mic drop. Keep writing
I had to read this a few times and I found a new thing to love about it each time. "Incomprehensible grandness of it all" and "the weight of a thousand suns" are both very compelling lines. Keep writing!
This gave me goosebumps. What a beautiful peace about hope. Your visuals are so clear. I could really see the soil coming back to life, the seeds growing roots, each person contributing a little of what they had. The ending made me smile and reminded me of that feeling. Lovely piece, keep writing!

Ah, a paradox. "The people built the wall / With their hands in their pockets" is such a good line. Keep writing
