Here’s What I Observed
Poem I wrote based on an a prompt in Teach Yourself Writing Poetry.
Here’s what I’ve observed...
Geeks in green glasses working as slaves
are beautiful Greeks eating like kings.
Magnolia garments disposed in fire,
replaced by flawless frocks stitched by the empire.
I have a diploma in being a fly on the wall,
and a master’s degree as a professional spy.
If only they’ve embraced the beautiful quirks, and see
What would have been had there have been courage.
Some correlations are destined to work: Bread and butter.
Many should never be mixed: Booze and politics.
Loyalty is the secret to immortality.
Disloyalty always paves a tragic path.
Those dying snakes in front of us were once human.
