Yesterday
When the farms were
more than cities
and neighbors,

Mystery was accessible
in clearer skies
and god was not
in currency.
Pity was not abstract,
lies were not kings,
and mothers
were.

I agree with Wanda.

In order to fulfill the contest requirements of "Brilliance", you need utter but ONE word, dear Scribe...your choice. Howl or whisper.
