Poems

Song of protest

From the November 1980 issue of The Christian Science Journal


You, serpent, who call me
nothing but a worm,
as you did Job,
will find
I'm the man of Mind
to whom God gave
dominion sublime.

O animal magnetism, I see you
for what you are—
nothing and no one!
You're a zero
without a rim on it,
and not a noose
around my neck!
