Change In The Wishing
Is thinking sufficient
to turn us around
Cerebral in nature
as problems surround
For thousands of years
our nose to the stone
We’ve battled our nature
and mostly we drone
The answers elude us
the questions forbear
While sins of our fathers
live on in the air
The harder we toil
the greater we fail
All change in the wishing
— our fortunes entail
(Saint Davids Pennsylvania: September, 2024)
