120 Sinners

120 Sinners

A Poem by Methusela
"

The thoughts just trail off

"

120 sinners, sinning

Above the statues pillars, grinning

A passivity that belies your years

A lividity, that comes with age

100 liars, lying

Below the ocean cold

A digression to the sentiments

The suppleness of youth.

Twisted.

I heard you, I heard you there.

And I saw you, I caught you out.

10,000 smiles.

1 million miles.

To you. Around you

Arrainged for your beauty,

Lost in your eye

Pick me out with a lullaby

Jellybean concucbine

Lost forever, and forever lost

A hundred wishers, wishing.

Up to you.

Down to you.

In and out and all around

Wow, that is gorgeous. Your style is unique and your wording is beautiful.
I loved this line: "A hundred wishers, wishing.
Up to you.
Down to you.
In and out and all around"
I loved it.
