Everything is broken.

******************************************************

Broken


 


 


Broken flowers in the fields


Littered across a sea of green


Broken spears and broken shields


Mark the place where the Warrior has been.


 


Broken bones beneath the sod


Spectral sighs come with the breeze


Brave men die for some sacred God.


In battle died some King to please.


 


Broken Armor, broken Guns


Litter the ground once again


Broken Daughters, broken sons


New bloods fertilize the grain.


 


Battles fought across the years.


For different Gods and different Kings


Different mothers shedding tears


Fearing what the next year brings.


 


The shifting earth will cover all


Evidence hidden from history’s eye


The valley awaits the next trumpet call.


New Battles fought new Battle cries.

Everything IS broken, Robin... Great cadence, it sets a sadly mad beat that pounds into the reader's mind, very strong.

In brokenness, we have the chance to reattach, unify, and heal. Lovely remembrance. Thank you.

"Broken" breaks the indifference and depicts the journey of inJUSTICE. A WAKE UP CALL in a poetic magnificence.

Thank You for sharing Your treasures. I heard Your voice, Poet!
