A HARD NUT TO CRACK
( A history of human progress)
His hands clenched
Around the walnut
They were too soft
To break the stubborn shell
He tried his teeth
They almost disappeared into his gums
So Willie took a hammer
Bang! Bang! Crash!
The shell gave way
The floor gave way
The house gave way
The earth gave way
And Willie stumbled
Unable to balance
Fell into the hole
He created
His hammer firmly
Held continuing the blow
Into the emptiness
Of space.
( The book Adventures of Willie by Mahmood Jamal is available from Amazon Kindle edition.
