Little Man Smaller Land

Sebastian Lockheart 1999 (Greenborow OR) – 2022 (Grennborow, OR)

Free verse
I once felt like a little man, A little man in a big ol land.

Overwhelmed by this it felt like I moved through this land at a snails pace.

However when I changed the way I look at the land,

it seemed as if I was still a little man living in a even smaller land.
