POEM: Awe in the Family

Awe in the Family

“I don’t think of it as working for world peace, he said. I think of it as just trying to get along in a really big strange family.” – from Unknown to Known

I was decades and decades into
My one and only
Family reunion
Billions of sisters, brothers
And others
Meeting up
Millions strong
Each and every weak
Countless birthday parties
On the our
Endless wakes
From eternal slumber
And everything in between
Awe in the family

The quote above is from the artwork of Brian Andreas, aka Kai Skye, pictured below as a colorful coat rack:Brian Andreas coat rack
