About how other people influence others significantly |
You diagnose not mental cases In hospital asylums, But social insomnias in those who strode with vigilance Down avenues and corridors. Yet weakened by insecurity Those whose jars shivered in dreams, Hallucinated by looming deprivations. You interpreted verse written in people's minds As filled with self-compassion and desperation; Then harnessed peace from your intellect by the power of insight Like the power of a rainbow on the ragging storm; Then you empowered us all with education and insight To forever be what we are and what we could be . |
