FIRE VERSES FLAME

Folder: 
JOURNAL#10

I was walking

yes indeed I was

towards a light

that somehow substituted

for a cause

a cause to bring me back

to my aging senses

and learn that not everything

straddles fences

like I and my conscience self

proclaimed

in my bloody tracks so shamed

silence here is not

the only arguer maimed...........
