Rob Schackne #799 - "The greatest small things"













          The greatest small things
          waiting to accumulate
          words of passion, or error

          The madness of language
          carves from the same block
          some strange new shape


          You say what goes around
          comes around, a fallacy
          we repeat until the heat fades


          Try kindness, or peace
          those were the moments of grace
          that tried to oppose nature

          Emerson would put it:
          Dream delivers us to dream,
          and there is no end to illusion.

  1. Beautiful. Its all contained there, in the same place, great and small, passion, error. A slight shift of focus or direction, everything changes.
