Caning his way Through this world Laid deep in his marrow A single breath Shared as a sigh Never late as in gasping Nor in belated goodbyes Like a shade in the sunshine Or a shroud in the night The moon glows in reverence To the one without sight ...just bein' Bluesy |

Bluesy, if this is non-fictional, and you know the protagonist (even as a regular passerby in the street), I truly hope that you have read the poem to him. If he has just one single poetry-bone in his body, he will never forget what you did. I almost wish that I was blind and a man, so that I could be that person for whom the moon shone in reverence and for whom you wrote the poem. Do you only write masterpieces? Or do you sometimes write ordinary poems? Owl |
