AGONY OF DEFEAT

Folder: 
z NEW WORKS

 

It’s come down to this:

I am a defeated man

beaten down by fate

 

That’s something many

viewed as destiny

while others still

foresee eventual glory

 

The pen is still

entrenched in hand;

perhaps that is

a victory in itself

 

but I no longer

possess the sharp edge

or the concise wit

 

My vision is numbed

and vomiting out

chunks of ideas

utterly unusable

 

I guess we all

end up falling one day

It’s a bummer

it came so soon for me
