Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

Missing the message,
the real message He was teaching
lost in their own thoughts,
their own ambitions, rivalry
their own claims to fame, to fortune
to riches beyond imagination
Wanting to be first when being first
meant being slave, servant
Not lord, vassal, gentry on the land
No, their sight was clouded, hidden behind
the veil of ambition, fighting for a prize
they didn’t understand

Mark 10:35-45
