To
Stick with your own
Kind

To those different
To
Turn an eye
Blind

Yet
Breaching the gap
Most likely to
Find

Much more in
Common
Than dividing
Lines

Others

About whom
You
Truly care

Sinking further
Down, down

Feet can’t touch the
Ground, ground

Afraid that I might
Drown, drown

Darkness invades
Around, around

Heart in chest
Pounds, pounds

Thoughts of panic
Bound, bound

Sinking further
Down, down

Life lost but heaven
Found, found

Puffing away
As he pushed his exhibit entry
Toward the auditorium

Suddenly
It dawned on him

Wind
Powered his energy

Never would
The
Bike’s owner
Have
Guessed

When
He propped
His trusty two-wheeler
Against the
Wall

That
Come nightfall

In
The glow of the
Full moon

His ride would
Mysteriously
Vanish

A faint trail
Of
Stardust

All
That remained
