Uwe Stroh Poet Free verse

I Carry Baggage

I carry baggage

over allocation

cost me it will

but I try to

tell you what's

wrong with you

 

You tell me what

I should do

I think I know

you're wrong 

know you're right

I carry baggage

 

You have blisters

on your feet

warts on your hands

you drink from

the cup of temptation

by the sweat of your brow

 

I have to dump

this baggage somewhere

have to lighten the load

get back on the path

to accept that my plight

is determined by you.
