Hi My Brother

by Menico Sottile   Aug 24, 2022


Hi
My Brother

It is now worth to mention
the works of the Universe
follow simple rules
Rules that give its perfection

Imitating the Universe
we succeed
without having to resort
to greed

These simple rules
are often overlooked
by the appearances of fools
clouding our chance
for gain
and romance

I now remember
you were young
affectionate and pretty
You used to call out to me
hi brother

But I did not know
what to do with you
and I knew not if I could
I did not know your name
Now things are not the same
I do not even know
if I am to blame

That was long time ago
Why do I now remember
even if it did not go

The Universe follows
some simple rules
from where it gets
its perfections
No point putting it asunder
and
with all its connections

I wasn’t part of any clicks
I was there as a stepping stone
preparing for college
and helping in paying the bills
I succeeded down to the bone
without having to resort to greed

Now
I don’t think
there isn’t anything else I need

    Lots of family background memories lurks in the background which says without saying too much. Its like a heart and thought in conflict...

    Just wanted to say, the last line:

    "I don't thing" is a typo and you meant "I don't think"
