My Grandfathers friend
Southpaw Joe
was down at the Willows
with Father Ray,
talking about remembrance,
and how old warriors
fade into the shadows,
for no man was master,
not in this place. |
The true humans.

I think this is the best of all your posts in terms of poetry. It carries more than the obvious and requires a bit of thinking from the reader.
Phil. | Thanks
