THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SILVER & GOLD
by Joanna Gilman Hyde
The Hawk West Desk Window 8:35am
Silver makes All The Difference —
It holds Reflected Light — You Can See
Your Self in Its gleaming surface
like The Moon
unrubbed It is neglected
stood upon It is sacred
–
Gold holds no such properties —
merely an internal glow
raging like The Sun
coveted by Men
–
We Are In The Silver Era
Nice one.
