The Man

by Zeenit Jacobs

Stone under weathered
boots, a Man climbs
the heel of a Man…

Foot to calf, and
thigh to trunk,
A Man climbs up the
shoulder of a Giant…

Eating with its eyes,
he listens with its ears,
drinks from its mouth…

Clouds on the head of
a mountain, mountains
on the shoulders of
Men; the Man looks up
and over the Mountain…
