Our Jots


We are the voices of our conscience
We are the recorders of our history memory

We are the inceptors of projections that turn realization
We serve the responsibility

We perform the responsibility
If each is to play it’s own on the stage

We may or may not be sage
Yet we note the expressions opinions conversations

Different situations segmented stations
On life’s journey

For now and prosperity
So we must write (or rather type?)
