put not thy trust in the common place of this world
lovers have betrayed
me
friends have abandoned
me
and don't get me started
on that dirty cheating
bastard,
life
but there were the books
always books
silent stalwarts of sanity
and salvation
Hemingway
Fante
Rand
Salinger
and so many, oh
so many
more
the words washing
away the dirt of
dissatisfaction with
the ignorance of
what is common
in this world
creating moments
between the
pain
and allowing the
flowers of imagination
to breathe and
thrive
adorning the silence of
my thoughts with the
royal gems of
creation
the word born of
ink and script
the only true gift of
hope God has
ever given
man
me
friends have abandoned
me
and don't get me started
on that dirty cheating
bastard,
life

always books
silent stalwarts of sanity
