Human TiesA Poem by Thomas J PeltierBreak the
ties of human relations, With self
egos that impair the mind. Never having
any problem to try And cut it
all loose. Break the
ties of human relations To create a
noose. Oh they
can’t feel the twists Of braids
wrapped around their wrists. Sever the
hands that used to be held. Red rover
sent the wrong men over. The peace
will always be over. Each chain
misses a link, Sever the
hands that used to be held They can’t
even think. Oh they
can’t feel the tips Of their
fingers and the blue of their lips. Break the
ties of human relations And sever
the hands that used to be held. What is left
to hold onto? What is left
to hold onto? © 2014 Thomas J Peltier |
