Ideas gleaned from poetry and books
should be for sale in little boxes, that
were optional at extra cost--and I
would find inside, the little people there,
that I could set upon my desk,
and shake my finger at them,
questionning without offence
their origin, or their descent.
And as a gentle Gulliver, perhaps,
remember to remark upon their zeal.
Of course if I found feedback from the air
that bears my voice, or from my friends who care,
I would. But yes, it is too much to ask,
and much too little to depend upon.
No wonder that the wee ones live for us!
Beware, my tiny leprechaun.
We are scavengers who would invade the night
to capture you, for you are rare indeed.
Within your packs, you bear the wonder drug,
insight to know, to dare to understand,
embrace, believe!
