Nicely Wrapped Gestures Poem by Patti Masterman
Nicely Wrapped Gestures
Nicely wrapped gestures,
Who do they fool?
We all ate of the apple
And evil finds its double
Every calendar day;
We would rather save ourselves
And sacrifice the neighbors.
Nice gestures;
How thoughtful we would be
If that were the whole of us?
But we always keep one hand
Behind our back,
As half the antidote we withhold:
The half that could save our humanity.
