An Act of Man

Stunted Head bowed He shuffles along Scared he might stumble Hesitant Hands twitchy He drags himself Terrified of all around Powerless Eyes nervous He glances erratically Intimidated by people passing Haunted By memories He turns around Glancing back at time Staring at an incident, an act of man That crippled his emotions as only a human can.
