The Machine, not a manA Poem by ProdigoHe invented the machine, A machine with knobs and made of steel With it, he would let in the fiends The world would never know it was real So he told them all they could see Until the first of them could feel No one came to his show, but he did not flee Instead he gave them all a deal He let them have it Gave it to them free The crowd cried and he was a hit But he ran out of money, and slept below a tree The man came to his feet and he cried The tree looked upon the man and let him go The man soon became sick and he died And the tree told the man, what he could never ever know © 2009 ProdigoReviews |
