Things Hard to Understand
by Richard Randolph

A love letter no one reads,
a strange man no one needs,
a seed dropped upon the sand,
a starving child in a barren land--

Why a man when he's lost his way,
blindly stumbles on anyway,
or a boxer too bruised to see,
still flails his arms desperately--.

Nothing

was I
