The Scribe*

by SD Master

Silly little b*-ing
Taking stock* in everything
Recording the day
The date
And the Hour
The building,
Climbing
And falling from towers.
The light of the night
The night of the Light
The working and playing’s,
The leaving and staying’s.
Building a road
in words and prayer,
Speaking to Ancients
at the top
Of the stair.
Criss-Cross, lock jaw,
Don’t ask him what he’s written
He can’t really say.
It was all just the view
That he saw looking through
me and you.
