Dr. Bennu tells us to get up from our chairs—
—and stand next to each other—
—Then he tells us to lock arms at the elbows—
—and we look like we’re chained to each other—
—in a circle arm in arm—
—He walks outside of our circle, then—
—one by one and two by two—
—he starts to push each one of us forward—
—He keeps pushing and pushing until—
—we hold on to each other so tight that—
—when he pushes again, we don’t fall—
—we don’t stumble—
—We are a chain link like DNA strands—
