It's Still Life

It’s All a Matter of Perspective

God doesn’t care about walls
or fences or boundaries, nor
your politics or prejudices.
I once knew a man who lived
in the desert — wanted to be
a hermit. So he built fences
all around him, mended them,
kept them tight and tidy,
and when I ask him why he
put up all the fences, he said,
“It’s to keep the sand out.”
