-- Of All Things --

by John Herlihy

 

Knowledge

On the outside of all things

Wisdom

On the inside of all things

 

Seeking

In the distance of all things

Finding

In the nearness of all things

 

Significance

In the promise of all things

Insignificance

In the indifference of all things

 

A secret

To be hidden in all things

Discovery

To be found in all things

 

Hate

To be as a trial in all things

Love

To be as a blessing in all things

 

Home

To be in the hearth of all things

Hell

To be in the fiery heat of all things

 

Beauty

To be appreciated in all things

Mystery

To be unveiled in all things

 

Disbelief

The lock to all things

Faith

The key to all things

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
