Daniel Mack Poem
Respire
Make of me a banished son
To walk this world alone
With heavy heart and heavy load
The boulder and the stone
Make of me a loyal friend
A soldier at your side
To be there when it matters most
A brother all your life
Make of me a mighty sword
An instrument of death
I was me but now he's gone
And this is what is left
Make of me a rising son
A vindicated soul
That I may be forgiven
And find my way back home

Daniel Mack Poem
90 Mile Beach
Watching the waves surrender
The beauty of this dance
Played out like a contract killing
The wind rips at the land like a starving rat
Angry at the moon for the tide
Screaming for answers
She strangles the trees
Barely visible in the blue-black light
A silhouette against the sand
Longing for the horizon
He waits like a wayward anchor

Daniel Mack Poem
The Smallest Life
The smallest life
A life no less
A beating heart and will to live
The smallest voice
Can not call out
Cannot be heard above the crowd
The smallest hand
A final plea
A longing for simplicity
The smallest pain
A pain no less
A feeling of unwelcomeness
The smallest heart
A heart stood still
Falls silent in the evening chill
The smallest love
A love unwon
Now floats toward the setting sun
