Insignificant Brothers
Many dream of life teeming with magnificance;
an answer to all their dreams;
then live their life in seeming insignificance;
since life isn’t all that it seems.
We’re told to become the best we can be;
but, what does that really mean;
we’re limited by what the eyes can see;
tho thoughts prompt us to dream.
First, we dream we are loved by all others;
a totally impossible dream;
we often argue with sisters and brothers;
no one has infinite esteem.
We’re servants, living in the Master’s domain;
serving was meant our example for living;
souls weren’t created; that they might complain;
all creation was the act of giving.
Many seek to build a ediface of wealth;
as a tribute to what they’d become;
secretly assembling it all through stealth;
then pass it on to a daughter or son.
Many seek wealth; to be an earthly king;
attempting to ascend a personal throne;
oblivious to the sadness; such actions bring;
a crown can’t satisfy those living alone.
Others spend their lives, living for others;
thinking of those who hunger and thirst;
the least in life, are insignificant brothers;
and one day the least shall be first.
