Greatness is not goodness.
The pyramids are a wonder of the world,
But one can only imagine the brick by brick
Brutality born on the backs of people
Who did not belong to themselves.
 Greatness is not goodness.
We’ve joined God in the heavens,
And gawked at the Great Wall of China from above.
Our walls go up. Then come tumbling down.
But God, God’s eye is on the sparrow.
