I would, but...A Poem by Chad HollingsworthOne cannot re-define Those things embedded in our minds But one can seek deeper meaning If he will simply remove the ceiling One cannot re-move The mire and the muck The parasites that suck The marrow of my life Sowing seeds of hatred and strife It seems as if I’ve allowed for too long All the wrong…things to persist. One cannot re- position Himself in a hopeless inquisition Because the situation is much too dire. But, One can re-discover, Truth beneath the covers of self and greed, Disseminate the right seeds Sowing seeds of love given by words of inspiration from above Which is why the ceiling of our minds when lifted Reveals all things that are gifted to unworthy servants Though peasant I am, I will not stay down I will instead stand up Exposing my thoughts now bankrupt And allow all that is good and pure To re-secure my own true meaning of life. © 2010 Chad Hollingsworth |
