Towns In Hell
Well I walked outside on the earth that remains
And let the greedy crows pick at my brain
With forgiveness and gratitude for their primitive ways
And with a thought lingering on the break of day
My mind chose to run and hide far away
Where the crows wouldn't linger
And the sun wouldn't burn
And the thoughts I'd had
Be banished without return
Torches in the distance
Church's ringing bell
Persuasion hasn't phased me
Towns of little lives in Hell.
This poem is about:
Me
My community
My country
Our world
