An ant with its provisions,
The shade of rain on anthill.

A white pigeon and a black pigeon
On a distant T.V. antenna,

The pouring rain cannot erase
The teardrops that fall down . . . more

Devoid of hope I turn to see

Peering inside at the light
In my past how much I'd longed
To fit in and to belong
But with time I came to see
