Why is…

Why’s it easier

To write a novel

Than a short script,

To use a cannon

Than a rifle,

To draw a whole

Than a part,

To live a life

Than savour a moment,
To free a wholesome grief
Than an unwept sob

To sing a song

Than hum a treble

To be an adult

Than a child?

Perhaps,

The abstract in life

Is easier than

Fine detail.
