the solitary
...................drifting..............

of days!
....................of nations!
..................of all the people in the world

the shifting shapes!
.........................the "shape-shifting"
men
turning into
............................mythological creatures
or into vile beasts!

it is hard to see anymore
looking thru our self begetting haze
of indiscrimination
and value-lessness

it is hard to feel anymore
we are calling and calling
but we do not dare answer back!

we know that what we need
is "something-that-we-lack"

we know that we must
"learn-to-yield"

but we fear to seem weak
we fear "to-seem-incomplete"

AND THUS IT IS
AND THUS WE ARE

drifting
...........................

with the drift of the day

the drift of the nations

of all the peoples in the world
