People…

People. People who call themselves

by a name, a label.

People who place themselves

at the head of the table.

People who invoke for themselves

some elusive power.

People who see themselves

as the need of the hour.

People who see themselves

Worthy of all honor.

Who see their god as helpless, ineffective,

in Towers imagine,

Themselves above all others.

Remembrance

Frigid, midnight blue,

Relentless seas roll over…

Edmund Fitzgerald.
