poEtS nEVeR dIE..
sitting here alone. I listen carefully.
he speaks in tongues. he sung a song.
I cried a smile and he was there.
a dead man's voice. and empty room. a chair.
I looked around the sterile room.
the cluttered nothing filled by eyes.
he was a fool. he made me cry.
I'm all alone, but poets never die.
he loads the gun in his left hand.
he shuts his eyes. outside: the world.
is all love lost? the poets asks.
he pulls the trigger on the past.
I close my eyes. can't stop the blood,
because his words live on.
and I sit alone, out of choice,
with my preacher's rotting voice.
he lies alone. familiar place,
but now it seems a different world.
he killed itb all; prophetic fool.
it seems he wasn't there at all.
I look around. he fills my mind.
why is it good men never shine?
I wonder if he said goodbye.
there was no need: poets never die.
back...
