Poets Turmoil No 364 |
Keep me back in the real world |
From which we try to run |
Music and words don’t mean anything |
Through the barrel of a gun |
A poem cannot heal a wound |
Books won’t help you find |
That something which you’re searching for |
But just add questions to the mind |
Tell me now in black and white |
What you’re supposed to do When fists and knives and sticks and boots |
Come raining down on you |
A painted picture on a wall |
Can’t justify a life |
When the weak and poor cannot escape |
Their uglinessand strife |
The actor in a bridge of words |
Leading us to nowhere |
Dressed in costumes to disguise |
The reality of despair |
The poets turmoil strikes again |
As once more words they fail me Another bomb has just supplied |
The cross on which to nail me. |
