Songs of Deceit

Harp strings
strangling hope

Promises
swept by disease

Followers
who pile lies upon pies

Day and night
a blur

Deceptions
inside lyrics obscured

Sheep's slaughtered
haven't you heard?

Jennifer Proxenos Date: 2/28/2019 1:33:00 AM A very clever poem Arthur - you remind me of my daughter in laws mother - she always says when my son and Robyn go to Nelspruit (near the Kruger park) to visit them, got to study my English before they come. One a doctor of philosophy and the other honors in English they remind me of you! We have to read your poems very carefully to fully understand and comprehend them! The people you write about sound disillusioned and desperate! You write brilliantly! Poetry hugs, Jennifer. Login to Reply

Carolyn Devonshire Date: 2/27/2019 9:37:00 PM Must agree with Tom, Arthur. There is more here than what one can absorb in a single reading. Compelling! Hugs, Carolyn Login to Reply
