Simple Is Our Death

by J. Allen Wilson — Read all 1,629 poems by J. Allen Wilson

Saturday, February 5, 2005

Time

Has

Escaped our

Eyes of wisdom

Nearer now and

Darkened with

Dead, empty

Rewards

Asinine and

Wasted with

Silent

Nothings

Evenly

Assessed

Raping all hope

Evermore

Robbing our

Loves failings

Intuitive to the

Killing sublimely

Etched in the

Tight

Heartless

Enduring of

Sorrows

Evermore

Torn from

Time

Itself

Nullifying the existence

God

Simple is our death

Unto a fallen

Nation once free.

J. Allen Wilson � 2005
