*Fear

By unclassified

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

In the boots of an old man we watch swallow after swallow tasting the bitter juice squeezed regrets watching him gazing slowly upon his wrinkled skin the accustomed frown on yesterdays back door step fear in his eyes just looking up the mountains, a face blank as he stares wondering from where this man even comes from karma killed the beauty of life and thats just a lesson learned because nature has her way with you always and when you don't know it its only sweet revenge did you hang the women of western Europe? did you slaughter the Jews in the Holocaust? did you demand the black servants and rape their daughters and kill their children? Fear. He doesn't know why he cant tell you himself to even play the part so we watch send our regards to the gods, mother earth strong and powerful she gets her way always Written April 15th, 2002 © on Apr 15 2002 08:08 AM PST   0 • 1
