Please read the following poem in a “u” shape: read from top left down,
across the bottom and up the right side to the top right.
If reading on a phone, please read in landscape. ~ ​​​​​​​Rabbi Shoshanah Tornberg


The shofar is a broken

thing

Once held aloft by a head                     home.

It got ahead of itself                                       to wend our way

And tumbled                                                             leaving space for us

Rite-ward                                                                               It echoes
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  brokenlikeourhearts

And now it calls                                                       Each of these long strange days

A broken call.                                              We chase after it

Disparate sounds                                 and deep follows deep

Seeking
