Notes About The Poem

COME, LET’S WALK TOGETHER

 

I am not invisible; 

look, and see:

I’m alive and well;

blood, bone, and flesh,

I’m the needle in your eye:

yes, that is me:-

I’m no longer a wanderer below;

I've risen high:-

I am up in awareness,

and will not soon die;

and where I go from here,

is in God’s hand:-

Where you shall try to escape,

I’ve been;

where you once held me back,

I now, freely stand:-

Hey, what would you

have me to do?

Indignantly treat you

like you treated me?

What manner of human

animal are you?

How can you viciously

destroy your own kind? 

What manner of creature

would do what you do?

How can you stoically devour

your own for all to see?

What infestation destroyed

your born sanity,

and eventually devoured

your beastly mind?

Come, my brother, there’s still

some hope for you and me:

Come, my brother, let us walk together,

upon this land:-

Come, my brother, let us walk together,

hand in hand:

Here, daily walking together, in peace,

love, and unity:-

 

COME, LET'S WALK TOGETHER

COME, LET’S WALK TOGETHER
