Poem Title:
Poem
All he is rackety-raggedy walking the streets. Talking about things that are conflicting. His mind has been captured by the wrongful deeds of people. He has been cheated and depleted of his meaning. No more power brings no stronger will to live… That is the will for bigger and better things. The arms of a vagabond are covered well even on a hot summer day in the Mississippi Delta. His educated presence states that of oppression. His historical era is that of social injustice. He laughs to himself. He must be thinking on once better days. He swigs his wine and squats to drop his bag. He looks up to speak to the woman sitting on her porch. He asked her could she share some coffee. She responded and says sure Bill here you a cup. She knows his family very well. The arms of a vagabond are revealed. He is slim and handsome to the life he lives. His educated presence postures a friend. She admires him for his intelligence. A further walk down the streets of life brings forth new insight. He shows his self-worth as he sits under a tree to eat. It was a nice place to relax and think. He knows that his life has been negated. However, he fared just the same. How his story defines his path now. How his mind coexists with his conflict. Can he undo what has caused this perplexity? The arms of a vagabond strength are shown. Through manual labor, he overcomes the challenges he knows. Once he felt he would not make ends meet. Today as he proceeds, his thoughts manifest the skeletons seen. To all, he is rackety-raggedy walking the streets. Talking about things that are conflicting. His mind has been captured by the wrongful deeds of his people. He has been cheated and depleted to his self-meaning. No more power brings no stronger will to live… That is the will for bigger and better things. _________________________________________________________________|
