Jack's DiaryA Poem by an I adriftIf you were a tree I'd cut you down And let the others live So they could keep us breathing Build a home to sleep and a wife to keep Where you once stood While the leaves spin in circles And our heads begin to empty We become one with the fallen branches Of your demise Until the memory of you is forgotten But we will always remember your rotting We will bury it under our new lives And never take our eyes off the skies A man with his people He feels good inside his head Normal setting Usual screams Getting younger Feeling the endless flow In the end we'll all be people © 2009 an I adrift |
