Something Excels

Something excels us, while we work and play,
Underneath the village river of working day.
A man has arrived from a deep forest
To share and process the complaint he made before in earnest.
Goggles are worn to protrude the talk
Of a woman and a man that disbelieve
In the way the world has offered more praise.
May we connect to find more ways than one
In the things we do.
