David Walker Poet Rhyme

Listen to poem:

Stronger By the Hour

Stronger by the Hour
David J Walker

It is
            Afterall
Only a wall
Made of words
How many lawyers does it take
            To make
A wall of bricks
            So thick
That not even air can pass through it

Not even sunlight
That might
Allow passage
but willfully won't

There is a nimbus
Surrounding the border wall
There is an order to
Maintain order

There is a cold fog
That eats the light of
The seawall
on the West Coast

There is a ghost who will
Not rest unless it has
Raised a glass in a toast
To those it is about to devour  

 
There is a storm
In the middle lands
That is growing larger
stronger
By the hour
