A

Does he give
A
damn?
Does he care who I
Am
?
I’m just
A
man, is that all I
Am
Are my manners misinterpreted words or only human?
I’m human
Murderous crow, hey what you know
What you reading about, what you hold in your toes
Is that
A
twig, are you
A
dove of peace
A
black dove undercover, with another puzzle piece
Are you
A

Or

Only human
Made of flesh, made of sand, made of you and me

Up in the major’s tree, the one he planted back when he was just
A
boy
Thinking 1923
Thirty meters and
A
foot, take
A
look, take
A
climb
What you’ll find is the product of
A
seed
The seed is sown, all alone
It grows above, with
A
heart of love
Sharp and shelter of the animals of land and cold weather breathing
We’re all breathing in
