Stratospheric Recovery

And up in the front was this big long table, raised way up there and that was where the trustees sat… stratospheric recovery! ~ Vicki W

Importance. Prominence. Achievement.
Some people just have it made!
And others look up to them, see levels unattainable,
see superior…or is it superhuman…untouchable.
But people are there. Folks who put on pants
one leg at a time. Mortals who one looked up
and perceived immortals on the very spot
where now they stand. Our species, our people,
our friends…or they could be if the pedestal allowed.
But it does. The raised platform is just that…
a stage with entrances and exits. But we can’t attain it…
if we don’t believe it’s possible.
