James Edward Lee Sr. Poet Light Verse

Spirit Sightless Man

Can't see COLD DARK BLACKEN EMPTY SOUL  I call you out of suffer, first;
Can't see  I placed your flesh upon this earth;

And for all, in awe your worth;
You're birth in unrighteousness you're cursed;

Can't talk  So you redeem, you dream in oceans;
Can't walk  Watered down passages desert sands;

Opened minded Open up hopes sorrows place, it lands;
Can't see On mountain sins spirit sightless man
