make it go awayA Poem by Amy Craig Beasley
It is morning
and the sky is empty and the streets are full of beggars and their cries for food ...because there is no rain it is morning and the sun is yellow and the rivers run red and black and they carry grief on their backs ...because grief is theirs to be carried it is morning and I am weeping STOP and I am sending this message to STOP you And you will fall STOP on this planet like an ocean STOP one drop STOP just one STOP at a time STOP please stop here end the mourning ...in the morning STOP because it is morning and the sky is empty and the people are crying out because they have no food © 2011 Amy Craig Beasley |
