Death to Daily Bread

27 March 2006


To have died last night
waved goodbye to what was good
Taken a step toward an ether
death eternal - nature lost

No value left in daily living
for who or what did care
A life empty - void of reality
stolen in innocence to encounter

This unsavouring of daily bread
the flavour tainted to taste
Gone was any worth
as to need over want

Just a ghost of a skeleton
flesh entangled upon withered bones
To have died last night
waved goodbye to the end


“For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.”
Matthew 18: 11 KJV
  

a poet who cares
