All but Her
wings were buried
a rhythmic flapping
without panic
without hope
Waiting for the Foot
without panic
without hope
Waiting for the Wheel
without panic
without hope
Only clipped wings
Only crushed dreams
Only ripped seams
A twitch and a twinge
A poof!.........A Pain!
Only feathers take wing
Only PLUmage Plummets
without panic
without hope
The Cloaking of a Corpse
Ogled and Overlooked
Marked, not Memorialized
The Passerby Paused
with all thoughts
with all worries
Unconcerned with the
Similarities of Decay
Unimpressed with the
Smashing Delay
Unconvinced with the
Effort to Dismay
To take the Moment
Can take Guts
So One Must Gather
The Must
To Stare
Compare and Bear
the WEIGHT
with all thoughts
with all worries
WAIT
Willfully Accept
A silent ponder
sum it up.
without panic
WITH HOPE
