Pass the Torch

by Sam M. Phillips

I hold no special status to myself,

I am just one of many artists,

Living in a long line through time,

We each live for each other,

We each pass the torch,

No one is more important than another,

I do not want to be held aloft

Above the others,

I simply want my right place

In the relay of ideas and expression.
