Comparisons (Revised) Poem by RIC BASTASA

Comparisons (Revised)

Rating: 5.0


you have not seen how
they repaired the broken things
within their fences

you have seen me
how i mend our broken fence
and you say
we are worse than they

you always see the greener fence
beyond ours
i will not disagree with you
but you must understand that

this is all about them and us
and please bear with me

there are no points of comparisons
you have never lived in their house

we are a family and we must
accept with humility what broken things

we have in our house what small love
is left what waste we can still keep.
