Gargoyle's Perch

Gargoyle's Perch

A Poem by Hippy

High in the sky

On a dark, moonlit night

The gargoyle watches

From his perch

Gazing deep

Into the heart of the city

He sees all of the madness

All of their sadness

As lights flash

And the cars crash

People cry

And people die

Guns fire

And druggies get higher

The book of the world

Adds more to its darker chapters

The gargoyle is to be their guardian

To add light to this book

But he cant guard all of them

And all of their evils

Turn him to stone

Leaving them to fend for their own

Til the day they fend for each other

Man..the images were awesome. I could imagine it all. This is a great narrative and an uplifting story. It is sad, but it left me optimistic for the future. Things are sad, but there is something to look forward to. nice.
