Letters To A Young Poet

Lies behind the eyes

May 16, 1992 — Filed under: mypoems

Lies behind the eyes fall behind minds that hide In darkened halls our canes are hung Where are the men in white The one who saves the day They are now made of money And rarely ever save the crying child Decisions are delivered in code Never mind the world It’s gone mad! Do all minds think alike No Critics every where In my closet Behind the glass Judgment day has come and we are guilty and being punished right now under the spotlight in the corner with the rest of the freaks Wishing for a better tomorrow Only to look toward the stars Basking in our own urine
