unprotected…

unprotected

surprised
to find
such
a treasure
out
where
anyone
could take it
those
who chose
to see
it
thought
how foolish
of the gods
to leave
such
unsurpassed beauty
in plain sight
to be absconded
by
any
common thief
the smile
of
a child

the perfect marble…

i can’t believe it
i found it right here
while cycling
a steely
a childhood treasure
beyond wealth
more precious
than cats’ eyes
or even
steel-blue swirls
a steely
polished to perfection
i can see myself
in every turn i make
i’m circling the globe
seeing myself
as the reflections
of other’s lives
in every turn
i make
seeing
that
everyone
has
the same
desires
hopes
loves
disappointments
and fears
as
me
so
why
is
there
war
