Why is that?
You always have
So much to say —
About yourself, your life, your things;
But nothing to say
About what counts.
Why is that?
Why aren’t you
On the streets
With the people and their flags
And placards and loudspeakers?
Are you too busy?
Or is there something
That’s more important —
Yourself, your life, your things;
Or worse —
Is this not important to you?
Why is that?
