lines 2
Proverbs 13:22
22 A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children,
But the wealth of the sinner is stored up for the righteous.
Drawing lines in the sand ... using a permanent marker
The color selectively chosen to show my frame of mind
Thinking this will last forever or at least for my lifetime
To be carved and frozen for generations there to find
We all will leave a legacy ... mostly dried out in the heat
Flesh and bone will disappear ... only by few remembered
A picture here and there to be discarded in the future
By the ones who did not know about this lost family member
Where did all go in this parade as some flags draw attention
as they are carried on while a band plays profusely?
Many nameless facets smiling in their emptiness
Putting up a show that covers thinly the surface strangely
