John Hope Franklin the prophecy to which you call us <br />Is the one I fear we fail to hear <br />And like this poet's muted voice anchored in a sense of history <br />Can only wonder here about the power of things <br />That rob the commonweal of so much good, <br />Our great private wealth may count for little with out your greater sphere<br /><br />Bill Grace<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/refraction-off-the-interview-of-john-hope-frankl/
