un-Cloaked

Standard

Joseph was known
For his Cloak
But he is remembered
For his Character
Which was only revealed
When un-Cloaked

We spend our lives
And our children’s lives
Buying better Cloaks
Education
Career
Status
Fame
Power
Prestige
Security
Happiness

And perhaps we should

But…

If we want
To be remembered
Fondly

Or at least
Remember
Our own lives
Without regret

Maybe
We need to make time
Space
Place
Rituals
Commitments
Covenants
Communities
Lives
Reputations

Where we know
We will be
un-Cloaked
