Continental Drift

Listen to poem:
These green and isolate continents, set apart by oceans slick as glass, post signs on high escarpments to warn ships, sailors -- and loves that pass -- of seeming permanence, often met: though earth seem solid and free from rift, please beware of continental drift.

this is an excellent comment on the false security we find--we think our friendships are strong, or our marriage is solid, or jobs are secure....but life is variable--never solid or safe...excellent write!
