Fidel is probably the windiest poltician/revolutionary in history and Genghis burned everything in sight. We are but straw in the wind.

Che?
However, it does make me think of The practice of the presence, when you speak of straw, and the humble man who saw god in every action, be it big or the picking up of a straw.

Humility is strength, power corrupts and ultimate power corrupts ultimately.

Such wisdom in 4 lines.

This is a gift of the Muse, Jon! A most perfect utterance that is unique and of an epiphanic instant. Your astute mind and ready pen has captured and framed a conceptual mini-masterpiece! Strike! :)) xx

Ogres of time and space may try to obliterate what God has created but mother nature speaks for God and the wheat of a thousand centuries still thrives to feed the masses. Well stated Jon....
