Have You
Upon being invited to consider the Book of Ecclesiastes for the Makers Collective I found the verses and the general tone of the Book of Ecclesiastes, struck me in a surprising way. The question I kept asking myself was, “Is the author struggling with authentic despair or a form of entitlement?"
I was a bit nervous about this observation. Was it sacrilegious to ask that question? Was I seeing entitlement in my own self? Was I just cynical? The answers varied, and the poem that follows came out of this tension.
