Hard read

A Poem by Jon Roggie

Would you put down the words?
Reading "The Executioner's Song".
Norman Mailer is the author.
I honestly don't know what to think.
There are moments which shine through,
and give you a glimmer of what was happening.
Feels like it is darkening my soul,
and I wonder if the author was trying.
Still, I will finish.
Knowing the outcome.
Another lesson.

It is flipping masterful. I don't know if I want to be able to do that.
