With Poems

Post by the mingo » May 16th, 2017, 2:07 pm

earth
our evil home
ball of bones
unpaid loans
a Twilight Zone

birds over the river
fifty times forbid
to be anything
but a giver

be quick
be rooted
measure love by tonnage
every day option of rapture
mind, imagination, & soul
a hushed silent sanctum
expanding hour by hour

we're on a train
we jumped at birth
no need to mourn
just ride & ride
our own private prophets
paying onward with poems
Doll, you may have found a place of rest but I'm still on the trail.
