Mystic Rose Rose Poet Free verse

Only the Eagles Know

Quote by: Harry J Horsman  
Today experts sole objective, to create
a need for their need. 

I won't get political, I won't get religious 
I won't even get involved in things of epidemic proportion 
Its all about Energy and saving 
the last bit of Umph from my fraying body;
 
Inclining y ear I listen to the incline of the wind,  
and lose the clanking of the cymbals, what do they know; 

Only the eagle's wing can brush against me here,  
only the dog whistles can find my ears,  
Only the wolves lair, is a safe place to sleep  
and only my soul can take charge, of my vouchsafe...

I won't get deliberate, nor will I bully you 
as I close my curtains I pray,  they aren't deceiving you
