Who notices prepositions
unless they dangle
like earrings
begging the spotlight.
They act
like auditioning extras
or photo-bombers.

when we, the people
are simply people
trying out humanity.

My nephew goes blah blah blah,
which is cute and could
mean anything when
spoken randomly
__ an 18-month old,
like prepositions
__ the people:
__ God, we trust.
