When it All Comes Together

Steps can be such beasts in waiting. Hope it is not broken....

a quote from P.L. Berger born 1929 in Austria and became a US citizen. He was a Sociologist.

Things are not what they seem. Social reality turns out to have many layers of meanings.

WHEN IT ALL COMES TOGETHER

In the mass of people, our population

Scores of stories invade space and time

What we see in correlation

Are many factions of life entwined

We may never really see most social realities

Not butted up to our own life's carousel

Our existence is our own generalities

Our own Heaven, our own hell

Newscasts seem a distant fiction

When we adhere to our general daily grind

We ride our own waves, endure our own friction

Out of sight means out of mind

Once like factions invade many spaces

And we all converge upon a common grade

We will share the challenges of other places

And in commonality our beds are made
