AN ANT ON A HILL,
RUNNING TO AND FRO,
THE ONLY THOUGHT HE HAS IN HIS HEAD
IS TO MAKE HIS HOUSE MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN ALL THE OTHERS.
HE CARRIES MORE THAN HIS WEIGHT,
NOT ONCE COMPLAINING
AS FAR AS I KNOW.
YOU CAN PUT A SMALL ROADBLOCK IN HIS WAY.
BUT THIS DOESN'T DETOUR HIM.
HE JUST GOES AROUND,
AND CONTINUES WITH WHAT'S BEEN TAXED TO HIM.
BUT SOMETIMES I WANT TO SEE
ONE OF THESE SMALL CREATURES
JUST SUDDENLY BURST AWAY
FROM THE FRAY,
AS IF HE'S SEEN A BRIGHT LIGHT
AND ONLY WANTS TO FIND OUT
WHAT THE LIGHT MEANS,
HOPING THAT THE OTHERS WON'T CALL HIM CRAZY,
AND MAYBE EVEN, PRAISE GOD SOME OF THEM WILL FOLLOW HIM.
