How Do You Do Your Small Part?

[Lightning Rod]

Sometimes you have to play triangle to be part of the orchestra
you can't always be first violin
the triangle player is important
puts the right note at the right time
it may be just one note, perfectly placed
the cherry on the sundae

Jerry Garcia and Coltrane took fifteen minutes to say it
the triangle player does it in a tenth of a second

Theater people have many sayings:
'Break a leg"
"Don't mention 'The Scottish Play"'.
and,
"There are no small parts, only small actors."

To be in the orchestra, just do your small part.

I saw the snares that the enemy spreads out over the world and I
said groaning, "What can get through from such snares?" Then I
heard a voice saying to me, "Humility."

To claim to know and to claim to be are different with humilty;
I build and build and fall and fall, low gravity reclaims me all.

Above its scaly, shingled entity
My roof – alike a banner overhead –
Supports no structure save the atmosphere
While underneath its attic two-by-fours
Dance geometric strengths; and too these planks
So well designed and glorious depend
On stories of their underlayers, hence
The dry-roof’s pedestaled on edifice,
And skin relies on skeleton to fend
For placement permanent; yet more the ranks
Of cellar flanks true permanence adores—
Foundation features sunk against the fear
That engineers might fail— No, praise instead
Lone all is shackled sure by gravity.
