At Home In Fire

There are men who can’t be bought.
The fireborn are at home in fire.
The stars make no noise,
You can’t hinder the wind from blowing.
Time is a great teacher.
Who can live without hope?
Man is a long time coming.
Man will yet win.
Brother may yet line up with brother:
—    Carl Sandburg
From:  “The People Yes“
[Apologies to Mr. Sandburg, for some reason this portion of his poetry appears in my journal out of order.  The portion beginning “Man…” appears ahead of “There…” in the original.  In any case, I prefer the version in my journal.  Also, this is just a small excerpt from the larger work.    —   kmab]
