Vanity Fairness

Vanity Fairness

If one hundred people are in some way
Treated better than we are

And seven billion others
Are treated worse

We will only care

Single Thought #23 – Poetry and Flowers

Poetry and flowers

Are similar in this:

Though each but one time seeing

Each leaves you with

A kiss

Skimming The Surface

Skimming The Surface

The deepest dive

Covers the least area

And yields uncertain joy —

No place to rest
Others find

Pulling

We want to pull
Beauty towards us,
But it always works

The other way around

Plow Deep

Plow Deep

You can plow deep,
Plant straight,
Water often,
And still

Live in uncertainty,

But,
That doesn’t mean

You shouldn’t try

Ridges

Ridges

The local ridge
Is not the highest mountain,
But what does it matter
When you’ve never climbed either?

Salutary

Salutary

If morality
Means anything,
It means that
We shouldn’t want to hurt others,
Or ourselves,
And should probably try

To do the opposite
