Poetry: Knowledge

by Justin Luther

Created on: April 25, 2010

FLAG POLARITY


I live in between
The skin and the body of a tree
Feeding, increasing my size
Light has never touched my pale eyes

Mother oak and father sun
Let me go when I was old enough
To go out on my own
(to die on my own)

This polarity was just to much for me
Like Adam and Eve
I didn’t know the Hell I was missing
The severity of interpreting
Never showed itself
A pat on the back but son you did far from well

Memory was born with my body
To remember all the things
That try and kill me
(There is not a purpose my mind serves
Without a world full of murderers)

What will become of us
If we pursue truth more than love?
