Large Stars Looking Small
By Connie Frazer
Gasp with shock, you spaced-out
wide bright twinklers. Soon
there will be more of us than
you. Yet consider the power
of small things together
— as trillions of fleas
in a house kept out the police.
Note how it needs displaced sand
to make the big footstep.
And who can stand
under the raindrop
become the water drip, the white
torrent nothing resists
when the dam bursts.
