Daily Poem: From You I Have Understood, by Eunice de Souza
From You I Have Understood
~Eunice de Souza
From you I have understood
something of the silence of the gods
how they tire of being the first cause
of every quarrel
how they shrink
from sweaty importunity.
Even the skies these days
are full of junk in orbit.
Be less like the wild gods, love.
