Simpleton Me

I pray upon my Knees 
I believe what I Believe 
I don’t care what anyone says 
My faith is Strong 
What’s written is Written 
If only on whispering wafers of Paper 
Or in Stone, or sketched in Clay 
Most likely, on my Heart
Is what I Say

the smart man found insulting.

would bring them peace exalting.

I scratch a happy face on thick glass on
The porthole, we will dock at a place 
where warm people sits around a fire and 
give a damn about sailor’s miserable life.

Loves he the soul, the unexpressed
                     also the press with grounds and water boiled
hot, steeping for minutes one, two, three,

Simpleton

I ponder
A purpose
Beneath the furnace
A sentence 
Of silence
You desert us
In question
Soul confession
You didn’t mention
Your intention
I remember when
I could have been
Something more than this
The possibility
Of loyalty
Crooked hands
Hold the strings
Sewn in self
Yarn of conscience
Thread of me
Placid tranquility
