WHEN THE WORLD IS PUT ON ITS KNEES

When at church man is on his knees to adore the Most High, he takes the right pride in the rite. When a prince eyes men gathered like bees Under his knees, paying respect, eyes towards the sky, it’s satisfaction of the might. When the world is put on its knees by a micro-seen thing, miles smaller than a fly, the wild creatures find it a knight! Like a bike without wheels men lose the move and sigh, stay agape, and start to fight the quasi-nil. And they try, all on their knees. It defies, and it makes their lungs its meals! It defies, personal success becomes a pie in the sky! It defies, and it continues to bite! It won’t hide in the hills. Like their sins, in their hide it does lie and the challenge calls them to unite. In the threats there are good fate’s seals that a good fighter won’t let pass by: love, humanity and good sight.
