Maybe at Mizpah

In other
Words
Why don’t we favorably dine over unity
Uniqueness
Feast
The sameness and the differences
If
For interest
Curiosity alone
While we are together

And with
A Mizpah kind of pledge
On parting
If we
Could
To regard each other well
And
Not steal
Or
Swindle
Or politick against each other while apart

Join
Know
Negotiate
Celebrate
Who we
Are
Who we’re
Not
With each other

Risky
Business
Maybe
But the only business really
Whose profit comes in lives and which might
Have
God approving
Waiting
