Step

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Apr 11, 2022 

Step.
Step by
step.
One step
at a
time.
Human
limitations.
One step
at a
time.
Step by
step
humanity
moves.
Moves
forward.
Arrow
of time.
Grows.
Limited.
One
human
step.
No
more.
Confines
of human
existence,
understanding.
Bounded,
limited.
Narrow
path.
One step
at a
time.
Moving
on a
thin
rail.
Straight
and
narrow.
Missing
most of
what is.
