Notes About The Poem

Brother To a Brother

Brother brother
My brother
Mi Hermano
Man of La Mancha
Fat cat donning
A  gray flannel suit
Slim shades
Fake alligator shoes
Brother brother
Mi Hermano
Sitting behind a desk
Making decisions
For erroneous reasons
 brother with Spike words
Forked tongue
Strapped for freedom
To write abstract words
Words of wonder
From a latter day poet
Creative brother
 for thy self
Mustering words of confusion
Into transformations
Detail lies and half truths
To abort friendship
Brother my brother 
Mi Hermano
There is room
 on this place 
We call mother earth
Let the past be 
The past
I extend my hand 
And in ending this
I say 
Alma con alma 
Soul to soul
Honor and truth
Among men 
Is here for 
All..

Well chosen words come alive in the reading and we cannot suppress a nod of agreement at the descriptive narration. Emile. #7
