Persephone's Wail

Persephone's Wail

A Poem by Dina

Wish my hands were smaller
And voice was taller
Perhaps the problem could get resolved that way.
Trippin' over dollars
You put me through college, but
Your blue collar is getting in the way. 

Our visions are not in sync
We're no longer helping each other
You cannot expect to drink 
the holiest of the waters 
with blood on your collar
it's blood that you drink?
What's that on your collar?

You're basking in absolute power, 
while your coward stands closely behind you.

Look behind you.
It's behind you.

You're basking in absolute power, you coward
You're basking ain't absolute.

You're basking in absolute power,
you coward.
Your basking
you coward
your power
you coward
you're basking, in me.
Your basking
You coward
Such power
You coward

You tower over me
 
How fascinating.
You fascinate me.  

Where does the power go?
Where does it all go?
