What a web we are in
Go here go there
Wedding, graduation, birthday parties
Are we in our own refugee camp
Not concerned about our brother
Where is our money going
Pay this pay that
Taxes, insurance, mortgage
Are we better off sending our money home
So our brother can eat
Where is our free time
Run here run there
Working, shopping, meeting
Are we losing ourselves in our own hourglass
Leaving our brother to fend for himself
Where are our thoughts
Do this do that
Rushing, faxing, hurrying
Are we lost within our own mind
Not daring to express our brother’s concerns
Where are we going
This way that way
Critiquing, objecting, fighting
Are we caught within ourselves
Abandoning our brother’s struggle in our disunity
