bitter bones

bitter bones

A Poem by Robert Francis Callaci
"

ashes to dust

"

mice squeezing through the cracks
rats gnawing at the bones
buzzards crying eagles flying
Julius Caesar struggles
to get up from the mud
while Jesus swiftly digs his grave

 

eyes staring
eyes glaring
those must be yours
not mine

 

Big Nick loves a good laugh
lift him on to his horse
pound those nails
on to the cross

 

tyrants live on forever
