The poet expresss a certain irreverance when for the drop she wrestles and pleads not to accept the place in the organiztion of things, but this is very human for we are all all not at rest when seeing ourselves in retrospect. The following poem expresses the organization of the heirarchy.
The Heirarchy
Great systems have smaller systems
That feed on divinity
Smaller sytems have lesser systems
And so on to infinity
