Common Man Biography
The life of a common man
Left to his own ways
He shares his life through words
From the edges of a page
Inside his story produces
A long-winded tale expressed
But fine is its story intertwined
With life’s long road impressed
This man has no longer a page
That is empty of life’s journey
Every detail is written down
And it surely feels like plenty--
Of his words are poetic in nature
As his life expressed is pure
Ups and downs, all winding roads
Left for us to explore
The common man finishes his work
The masterpiece of biographies
No matter what he did implore
He said it with all intensities
Which he only could understand
As this was his life being said
Making it open and feeling true
Wanting for it to be read
Russell Sivey
