A slip of a manA Poem by mikedohsaysa poem about confusion and harmA slip of a man
His bloated
face. Short cropped hair A man in a zoo He is free to
go. Free to roam With eyes on
points of confusion Must make a
choice
Shambling Torn between the
force of will A trapped ego
and spent flaws With remnants of
an unreliable memory And the pull of
human decency
How far can he
fall? The animal in
that man Unfettered beast
that he has become When open doors
and friendship Confound him and
unleash fear
The chords and
sinews that separate The lost from
the found Resonate only
with simple rules That trust and
faith will bind That harmony is
in the mind
He is inchoate No doubt
troubled in the new dawn Clutching at
half-formed thoughts Remedies that
come to hand In the hurry of
remorse © 2014 mikedohsays |
