PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

The poetry

flows

it pours

into crevices

and fills the cracks

in city streets

as nature

reclaims its turf

and pitiful poets

attempt to plea bargain

making a case

for neverending folly of man

and historic storms and floods

seem the punishment

of a wrathful God

that may not even exist

but the poor starstruck poet

leads the case

There’s still hope

There’s still a chance

Pleading to a God

we don’t even believe exists

forgive me one moment

I need to mosey to the bar

maybe muster

a small does of courage

to continue this argument another hour
