21st Century Life
Whispering winds carrying smoke filled grenades
Lives bouncing left of normal
Trying times trouble Bin’laden, wanting to right his wrongs
People begging gods for deliverance
The black spotted lamb backtracks to the elders’ way
Walking wires of sweet tongued devilry
We walk on a rickety bridge, this life is fragile to behold
Live and love in the here and now
These moments of strife are but a breath of life
Repeated over and over again
Sword is replaced with gun, gun with nuclear bomb
Killing humans, no regard for life
Hitchhiker
