Floating down the halls of time
And history are we
Specks on the sea of humanity
Drops that mean nothing
By themselves
Are together
The whole of the ocean.
“If I am only speaking to myself
Am I still a poet?” -- Manea
One nut
Two nuts
Three nuts
Four!
The DNC's knocking
At our door.
“I don't belong to myself, I belong to humanity.” – Manea
Why do we murder
Our greatest human treasures
When they are ahead of their time?
And celebrate them once they are gone?
Does the martyr do more than the man?
“Quit should-ing on people.” –Someone like me
Punch, punch, punch,
With such rich words
I can't remember a word
You said,
But I'll never forget
How you made me feel.
“Sanity is when we all agree to the same nutty thing, and call it normal.” –Manea
