Prisoner's Lament.

Postby Eliko » Tue Nov 06, 2007 10:04 pm

A man peered through his iron grille and sighed,
the world outside was quiet and still, he cried:-
"Young men of youthful age, in my life's book there's a page,
which I gladly would tear out and throw aside.

For ten long years I've been here now, in pain,
I clearly can remember how I came,
I was won't to do the wrong then my 'Big Chance' came along,
so I broke man's treasured laws to 'Make a Name'.

When I say to 'Make myself a Name' I mean,
Among the thieves to rise to fame, unclean,
but listen now to me, a thief outside I may be
inside here, I'm just another old 'Has Been'.

Your sins go hand in hand life through in pairs,
your destiny depends on you and prayers,
If you ever stop to count, you will find the true amount
of your wrong deeds in your Mother's greying hairs!"..........Eliko.


Thought I would like to change the subject for a moment folks, hope you don't mind. :wink:

Good idea Eliko . . . great reading, and re-reading!.

My face has relaxed, I am typing more slowly! I may even stop . . . later :lol:

Thank you. I hope you have sown the seeds of change on the forum tonight.

It's no secret...I have a few posted there and the great thing is you get comments from real poets.

The site is.

Here is one that I am sure will interest you after all your :wink:


Plutoed

by zan

Follow the sharrows’
To avoid the climate canary
For green is a snowclone.

I julie,
And you come
But he is lactard
To the milk of human kindness.

I waterboard
The decider
About his flog

I feel I have pwn’ed him
But he holds tight
To his data valdez

The fox lips
Spew Islamic macaca moments
That stay the course

We wait the sudden jihad syndrome
And soon he will be plutoed.

zan, Thanks mate, I will post one or two and see how it goes, I often scribble down my thoughts and put them to one side, some of them are (if I'm allowed to blow my own trumpet) quite good, in my humble opinion. :lol:
