OBERT PETERS

In The End

In the end~
a man loves himself
alone.

The elements, and the stars
though strong and more beautiful
than he, rest, blow, quench, burn
and glow for him alone, he thinks.

Strangers, tribes and crowds
he frowns upon, transcends.
The lucency of God floods over
them & him, illuminates his wit,
shines dimly by comparison

on theirs. Out of His tolerance
God lets them be.

His relatives one by one
he drops; and learning
he ignores, and art (for
insight twists his heart).
He shrinks, like lead
boiling down. “T shape
the universe!”’ he cries.
Scales over his eyes
remove all doubt.

MUTTMTTLATETTRTTLA TTT

In the end
it is only himself
he sees

loves

thinks about.
