100 beads of sweat
One olive, one leaf
On the manicured log
I hoped to belong
To belong
Is what I truly hoped for
To find a silence
A hoped for silence
In that song, where I belong
100 beads of sweat
Ten minutes, no more
From brow to bench
Brow of belonging
To bench of longing
Every bead just one more step
Steps
More steps to where I long
Steps, yet again, to help me belong
