All That Refuse To See

All That Refuse To See Your ears shut wide eyes up tight a menagerie sits in absent light Time and reason are out of sight stonecold now is courage's might! Your eyes embrace a newfound cave even logic can not your mind save in blindness you are now a slave treading a path to shallow grave! Your screams raise no great alarm dead plants harvest on your farm No more shall love be your charm chained legs match each dead arm! Your last days filled with cries fruits set onto your many lies Dark clouds moan in your skies Heart rots as soul slowly dies! Your death was an incoming tide bled from arrogant false pride Fait accompli no man can hide none succeed, many have tried! Robert Lindley 01, 23, 1979
