A gallery tour

Wall to wall to wall

All the exhibits

And you are not there

Yet I’m told you are key

I scan the valley

I explore the sky

Behind and ahead

And you are not there

Yet I’m told you are key

Insignificant

Such a missing piece

My mind yells roll call

And you are not there

Yet I’m told you are key

Under the big top

In the day-to-day

On the ocean floor

And you are not there

Yet I’m told you are key
