Birth Pangs in SpringA Poem by Allen MastersonShe's spinning in the rain
in the same place anger assassinated melancholy The victim is victor again When midnight bleeds its back door hint of anarchy But she can't change blue to red Can't resurrect the dead A razor torn sky lying exposed in bed She smells the birth pangs of spring the infinite pause of sorrow when the birds sing Lift it up for me to see The remnant of your melancholy From midnight to the morning plea The faded voice of anarchy She's spinning in the rain The same place promiscuity murdered chaste But Jezebel is Mary once again when noontime sheds its skin of haste Hold it up for me to see The remnants of your sanity From midnight to the morning plea a faded voice..... of sympathy © 2011 Allen Masterson |
