"Choose"

I met a woman yesterday--a friend of a friend--who writes a letter to Trump every week and mails it through the US post office. She said she gives him advice—“not exactly friendly, but polite, and coming from a place of love”.

And she often recommends something for him to read. 
(Yes, she knows.)
Just before New Year, she'd written out this poem for him.

The single clenched fist lifted and ready,

Or the open asking hand held out and waiting.

Choose:

For we meet by one or the other.

She deserves an award, I thought, some return for the good energy she is sending out.
I ordered this block of four Carl Sandburg stamps from 1978 ($1.65 on Ebay) to mail to her.
