Alas! So Shoot Me, I Grieve What Was Lost

 

Alas! So shoot me, I grieve what was lost

Not just youth, but those things Time took away

Mother said:  “always smile”

I smiled 

I am still smiling among others of my kind
In clusters of wrinkled cheeks and memory-laden souls

Shoot toward the stars.
Shoot toward a new tomorrow.

Shoot toward the stars.
Shoot toward eternity.

The rage that screams against the sky 
A battle ground of angry hate 
Death's anger looms; threat reaches high 
The rage that screams against the sky 
A voice it struggles to deny 
The venom 'fore it spews too late 
The rage that screams against the...

Father had taken me deer hunting,
thinking to make a man of a boy.
I prayed we wouldn't see a deer.
and we didn't—not one—such joy!
