The Broken

The Broken

A Poem by Corset

I do not need to tell you of the woes of this world 
for they are your birthright 
To be destroyed by the very thing you loved the most 
unjustly accused 
simply by appearances and perceptions of
shallow water
Never judged, 
nay just executed
How could that ever be trusted Again?
Beloved Dove, how indeed
Yet you died 
so we could  believe in your courage
Your covenant 
Some may say foolishly 
As I look around the world today
And I can not fathom why 
the depth of which you loved
Of which you loved us
Your lambs are wolves and hyenas
 
So lost in the depths of disparity 
Empathy
Chaos
Beloved dove
You are my breath so tenderly drawn 
Sun, Moon, and star lit skies.
You've always loved the broken ones 
most.

Wordsworthian in it's tenderness (" I Wandered lonely as a Cloud") but denoting the salt of perpendicular wickedness that we believers take our burdens to the cross. And this is why I started feeding the birds that come and sing in the trees in my yard. Because there's a reservoir of breath left among us. Lovely/ dana.

Thank you R&R
The dove should be known and venerated by everyone. But isn't. I find this poem very truthful, beautiful and empathic.
