The Torso of A KnightA Poem by HarubatzWith grievable smile I see the
light at the end, but everytime I take a step, it gets dim. I don't
realize where I live and with whom I get along with. The public criticizes,
and the audiences shout longing for winning. A knight
grabs a dagger and flings it to the world. Wind
interferes with the dagger, and rain makes the dagger wet. Thunder
makes the dagger feel pain and the dark clouds aggravate the pain. Face is now
on the hand of the knight, and the knight looks at the face. The knight
regrets and thinks woe would betide by him. I see the
light at the end, but everytime I take a step, it gets dim. Not to make
the light fade, I take a step back before I go. Thus, I stay
and stay at the same spot staring at the precipice of life. I see the
light at the end, but everytime I take a step, it gets dim. Not to make
the light fade, I draw a blunt sword and give it to the sun. What has
left for me is now the torso of the knight. © 2014 Harubatz |
