Short Rhetorically Poems

On the table
The candle sputters
Flame flickers
Almost guttering
But does not die

At the table
A heart yearns
Tears form
As hope fades
She cries inside

At the table

At home
Her heart aches
Her spirit breaks
She drains the glass
And she dies...

Age has taken a sobering toll
On my imagination
I no longer think illogically
Just logically, and rhetorically

By dreaming About the cost
And wars, I'm sure, have been fought
For logical reasons

I want to believe in super men
Cause maybe if I do
Or you, and everyone else does too
It could become the truth...
