Mountain-Top TombA Poem by Cassidy MaskYou must have been real dedicated (Or just superstitious) To carry your dead To the top of this mountain Because I just climbed it and Believe me It’s no joke I’m standing on this mound of earth This tomb of kings And I can see for miles Can see the whole world Newport and Cardiff While beneath me The bones of you Lay under Thousands of years of dust I’m standing on this tomb And I’m thinking About death But not in a morbid way Just that I bet you thought you had some kind of Control Like you owned this land And now you’re long gone And I’m standing In my jeans and t-shirt Atop your tomb Uncaring and unimpressed By your once great power You see It’s my turn now Just for now. © 2010 Cassidy Mask |
