In Prisons Brimming With Their Tears and Lost Gold

In Prisons Brimming With Their Tears And Lost Gold Where does man heal his tired soul when old, in black castles brimming with sad tears and gold? Along rivers that ooze of his stinging dark pains, imprisoned in shades of his misery and stains. Lord knows we made our foul and blackened beds filled them with savage cuts in our hard heads! While we danced with world's greatest deceivers in our shallow joys, begged we to be receivers!

Where do bad men redeem broken spirits when old in prisons brimming with their tears and lost gold? Robert. J.

Parts two and three are both fragments-to be finished before I die-- if my muse leads me to the water to thus drink again..
