CaptainMikeRS Posted August 29, 2005 Report Share Posted August 29, 2005 These three poems were written over the course of this past week and have not received any feedback on my primary site, so any here would be greatly appreciated. All are copywritten 2005. The Enforcer (Written August 23, 2005 By Mike R. Smale) "Strike one- You’re out!" I bowed to the little man And said "goodbye!" __________________________________________________ Breath of Being (Written August 23, 2005 By Mike R. Smale) Glorious Spring has returned To bring salvation to The earth in Fall spurned Come with Life and Peace. But Peace is violent, Such is the order. Winters quietly spent Give rise to the rush of life. Turmoil and strife, Such is necessary: Not ugly, this Life, Life is to live. Like love is this, Like the sea moving Tempestuous, yet not amiss For this is the way. Peace, quiet, solitude Descend like winter To restore that mood, To reflect next spring. __________________________________________________ The Yoke (Written August 27, 2005 By Mike R. Smale) I see you here, Next to me in the night. Your brown eyes and hair A million in a million of each As Christ mounts upon the tattered Universe, to a rising bolero of All. And truth spreads out before us, A horrid torture chamber For our bloody innards... And I am here too much overcome By the realization that life- For the dung-pile eye- Is too much to bear.
