Poem Aug 26th 2013

The Old Sailor
You couldn't get past us
when the ocean was rough
we showed we had the stuff
to survive
come what may
we may be battered
but there the next day
tough as nails
respectful of the ocean's gales
ignorance
calls you to the deep
from there
you cannot retreat

Poem Aug 17th 2013

Dispute
Things
coming apart at the seams
don’t know any more
what to believe
in the middle
watching war of words
unable to stop it
calm it down
overwhelming sadness
at the loss to come
shattering lives
perhaps beyond repair
