Easy poems for difficult men

WALL



What if, right now,

All the tall talks

You have built

Between us

Like a great big

Mighty wall

Crumbles and fall,

And every bragging brick

From your bag of tricks

Is taken away from you?

Whatever would you do?

Before you start to walk away

I'd go knee down, anyway

In the muddy water drag

And plunge my hand deep

Into that sticky swirling mortar,

Twine your fingers with mine,

And in all that fine mess

let our bones conjoin.

Slowly set to stone

I guess!
