Civeo's Magnum Opus


I am not sure what it will take to serve,
except for that we will need integrity, courage, and compassion.
Look at us!
We’re soldiers already, each fighting some sort of battle every day.
Pity we so often take up arms against one another, mistaking our despair. You see?
Where is cause for such madness when here and now, not beyond a good will to better understand our own humanity, are lush golden fields?
If we go today, we each put on our poetic breastplate, souls ablaze, rouse our moral fibers and use our greatest weapon, our words, to defend our dignity.
May we stand tall together, as tall and purpose-filled as a spring poppy!
