The Wounded Wind

As the wind howls the parasitic perpetrator prowls And children’s dreams are left blowing in the wind As the wind storms the barbarous battle swarms And the countless screams are blowing in the wind As the wind scatters many a humble heart shatters And the vaporous voices are left blowing in the wind As the wind calamity chills the harmful hatred spills And the evil rejoices while left blowing in the wind As the wind torments a silent sinner or two repents For remorse and holiness are left blowing in the wind As the wind approaches a slaving solitude encroaches And the leering loneliness is left blowing in the wind As the wind cries through lamenting darkened skies The anguish accumulates and left blowing in the wind As the wind wanders a man on the hermitic hill ponders He patiently waits for love to blow in the winding wind.
