Face of Pain

Watching Mankind’s face 
..
 


Silence blooms as the daisy coaxes 
the mid day noon. 
With floral rhymes and minstrel sways 
times apathy sobs as silence croons.

The sea falters as the mountain 
prays for another day in majestic 
grace. 

Ignorance boasts as the darkness dies 
in a somber face. 
The chain of anger wavers as silence 
charms. 

Pride is the doorway to hell all can tell. 
Still silence blooms as the daisy coaxes 
the mid day noon, and the mushrooms 
spring forth in swallowed time. 

Soon breaks forth the arrogance of 
ritual blooms of manifested hatred.
