Greatness

Is always built upon this foundation:

The ability To appear, speak and act

As the most Common Man.   

PoetryDecember 1, 2007 7:33 pm

I sow pearls in the soil of your moon;

Hiding from men, i weep like dawn.

I am reluctant to come out in the busy day,

And my tears flow in the solitude of night.

The cry pent up inside me,

Whom should I get to hear it,

And to whom can I show my burning desire?

Lying on my chest the lightning Sinai sobs:

Where is the seeing eye- has it gone to sleep?

My assembly hall is dead like the candle at a grave.

Alas, night! I have a long way to go!

The winds of the present age are not favourable to me.

I do not feel the loss sufferred.

The message of love,

When i can no longer keep it to myself,

I come and tell it to your shining stars.
