[bodytext] => My flesh invaded by jacketed lead core Living color spills onto a canvas of war Bits of fragmented me shower the scene Clean-up men couldn’t scourer it clean Ghetto floors toast with a vampire’s lust Frenzied palates thirst as nuts go to bust Ancestry pours whilst young thoughts ooze Emptied minds collect in gutters, my muse Deadly shrapnel within the tissues of kin Families are torn by the impurities of skin Conflict’s confined deep in a convicts mind Sentenced to death just one breath at a time Can you hear the chants of an ancient soul? Damned entities out on weeping patrols Tongues of a million slain echo in my ears No measure of fame will ever tame my fears The concrete’s alive, saturated by lives leaked Beneath the feet of victims past & eyes blinked Attrition thrives when society pays it no mind Rewind time to witness crimes no jury can fine Stitched into the fabric that joins time & space Is the very thread sewn into the human race Disgrace the keepers of old like Cortez for gold & you’ll drown in the shallow pond of your mold Breeched by the angry flight of projectiles at night Despite breath I fight to recite the prayer of last rite Finally free from the worldly shackles that bind me My eyes open to a world that no longer blinds me [comments] => 4 [counter] => 236 [topic] => 25 [informant] => Jeremy_B [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 13 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => MiscPoems )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
