Line Gauthier Poet Free verse

Listen to poem:

Illusions of Delusion

horizons blurred in a foreign haze
the fiber of life disintegrated
hope frazzled and denied
trust fragile in the wind

set adrift on a sea of delusion
the nightmare losing sight of morning
spun mixed emotions of solidarity
elusive death caught in a vortex
