We Are Infinite
We Are Infinite: Poetry & Prose for the Cosmos was written by the students of the Academic Leadership Community in 2022
Introduction
This book is a capsule soaring through the hazards of space.
It’s protection from meteoroids like COVID, the death of a loved one, or a break up. It’s a rocketship with precious cargo: a cluster of diverse teenage souls and charts of their losses, loves, struggles, hopes. Raw emotions and vulnerability in bottles.
Sacred moments rattling together.
The fuel of our shuttle is our determination––we are here and we will be here! Finding our passions. Learning self-love. Strengthening our weaknesses. Accepting mistakes. Charging through our frontiers. Breath by breath, step by step, day by day, star by star. Light year by light year. We are the universe, our stories told, untold, and forever.
We Are Infinite.
