The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

Who?

an ageless question

spoken by a bird

as old as Athena

it is no wonder she was

renowned for her wisdom

such a worthy advisor

she would choose

to ask a most profound

who?

 

No more than that said

but we may wonder

the depths of such a

quandary.

 

Who are we?

as living creatures

human beings

bearers of souls

 

Who do we think we are?

to make this trespass

to determine life and death

to shepherd the souls of others

in whose foot treads we meekly

follow with misplaced arrogance.

 

Who are you?

standing alone in the woods

as an individual

contemplating your own life

and existence

 

The stately bird

knower of the secrets

of night, watches all

from a concealed perch

and gives no answer

but a single question

who?
