Raincoat Raggedy Ann Man

Snitched by the snatcher
No light for the catcher
Turn by the pipes primed by the bell
Listen to the ocean as long as it swells

What light beyond the daylight breaks
Beside the light of heavens fate
Cherish be the beating heart
Beside the sound of heavens harp

Raincoat raggedy Ann
For here I stand a broken man
Within this prism I am bound
And there is heat beneath the ground

Shall I live and hope to fly
Beside the wailing where others die
Less ye be held beside the flame
Then honour me in loves good name

Seep beneath a sea of red
Then betray the thoughts within my head
Unleash the beast that breathes within
Then burden me before the sin

What hand I lead, I lead with love
To honour thee beside the dove
Less ye are warmed within the night
I’ll comfort thee beneath the stars so bright

You should be a songwriter. From what I've read so far, (and just commenting on this one--you have a pattern)...your work has its own sort of drumbeat that is audible to the mental ear.

blessin's Darryn, thanks for visiting my webpage,

A plea to those who hear only what they want to hear is what this poem seems to give the reader . . . A love poem from a broken man, but still with the heart of the great lover . . . With a bit of Paradise thrown in for good measure in the end . . . Enjoyable read . . .
