Broken Stones

Listen to poem:
Broken Stones
David J Walker


Breaking stones and compromise 
The sun arise 
	And I am gone

	I am alone
My bones strewn with
	Broken stones 

Dreams drained of hues 
        And tones

Hills climbed 
        Ill-defined
	Words refined 
With stolen loans

Poetics borrowed 
	In runes and roans  
cantrips laid 
In homophones

 	I am a fool for hopeful things
