Billions: a Confession

The world is bigger than I,

Billions on billions of souls.

Such a cloud and a crowd far outmatch me

If I try setting me against billions.

Thoughts, motives, feelings crowd in me,

Billions on billions of motions,

And I find myself strangely uncrowded

By the billions crowded in billions.
