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.
