Some Say
We who can
must write ourselves down,
send our words to no one
and everyone,
be the mailman and the mail box.
Some say little yet know much
but we who chatter, blab
and reveal
we must write upon this shifting sand
for all things will be undone
but not the scribing thoughts
of fools and poets.
Please tell me which are you?
A hard question
for we are most often both,
yet upon a sometime, we are touched
by the lips of God.
