The space
between
want and
need
is at once
a vast gulf
and the
width of a hair,
much the same
as that
separating
luck and greed.
It is only
in the eye’s mind
that the
gap is insurmountable
and we
give up hope
that those
who live
in the land
of want
will ever
look across
the border
of tears
and truly see those
who are
doomed
to toil
endlessly
in the
land of need.
