Millard Lowe Poet Prose Poetry

In the Garden of War

In The Garden of War

Satan—
Disguised cherub
Stole into the garden

The hawk 
Devoured the dove

Same wing—
Different feathers

Are we not
Just a variation

Same is the saying—
Early worms get caught
Least sleeping birds arise late

May tomorrow dawn 
Resurrection of the doves

May the true cherubs
Arise and soar
May the wings of hawks
Become featherless.
