if this was the answer...

by Kalikala Smith

if we all could have some meaning
in this brittle life we hold...
would that make us better?
would that cure the cancer
feed the hungry
save the lost?
... ... ... ... ...

save the lost
feed the hungry
cure the cancer
that would make us better
in this brittle life we hold
then we'd have meaning.
