Point of View

From heavens point of view
boundaries drawn by men on maps
must appear the stuff of myth

Creations like doors and walls
nailed in decorum of safety
an illusion of stewardship

While the space between cells
in each living body
vast in relation

Compared to the distances
  between men
    between cities
      between counties
        between states
          between countries
            between continents
              between worlds

As close as the next born baby’s cry
