Beyond the Pines

Beyond the Pines

A Poem by Arly Parent

There's a place they never speak of
the place beyond the pines
the place where young old Walter lay
dead beneath the Rhine

There's a place they never speakk of
the place beyond the pines
the place where old soldiers lay
who strayed beyond the line

There's a place they never speakk of
the place beyond the pines
a place they say
of the undead
in agony and slow decline

A place they called, Antimoden
a place where all could see
the price the price of freedom
paid for safety not liberty

There's nothing about me. I play with pauses as well as silence. I write words, assign meanings and junk, and play with a language that might be as much my own as another. I don't know. more..
