i am a triskelion
I AM A TRISKELION...
Measured by how I give life to its meaning

I AM A TRISKELION...
Respected by my solicitude to my brothers-
-not by the scars sustained or ruptures
inflicted to others in mindless conflicts
I am he who extends my hand and gives
Light to my brother in squalor or wallowing
in the quagmire of arid darkness.
I AM A TRISKELION...
For I am my brothers' keeper. I lead not
for mundane recognition. Humility is the piton,
service is the rock of my leadership.
I AM A TRISKELION...
I'm a timber of my family, pillar of my community.
I withstand punishing wind for I am not a name
I am a Triskelion brother, son, husband, father.
I AM A TRISKELION...
I rise above the acid-test of time. For my faith
is sterling as Solomon's wisdom--to forgive
than loathe, unite than divide, give than receive.
Triskele
I am called. Triskele I will always be.
For I am....
