In this land where all is well all who live there buy and sell their wares in perfect harmony; they all live in one colony. Unquestioning all follow Law laid out in the Nature’s draw the Code is written with a twist in a scroll of endless X-Y list. In deep dark woods a black bird crows a secret no one but he knows where in the shadows of the night grim soldiers readied for a fight — The Code by all revered - they scorn new order in their image born — they march the march of renegade and turn the land of light to shade. — But little do they have to boast - for in their march they stomped their host — ------------------------------------ In memory of someone close succumbed to cancer in 1990...

Thank you, passing shadows. I doubt there is anyone who has not been affected by this in one way or another... CG |

It reminds of a Queen track - '39'. So many lost to cancer for so long. Excellent words. Dave |

Thank you. Several moons ago my mother visited me here, in this state, in her physical state... and we knew of the moments that were dear; we made memories even though in our minds? We hoped against hope, all the while knowing the odds were odd, indeed... and she was gone, just a few months later, in '92. Holding you in your memorial time... and thanking you for this part of life. |

there's something about this poem that got me, im not sure what it is. maybe it's the last two lines, which i found really powerful, nevertheless, it's a good write. |
