Limping Man
Breeze laughed between
his limping footsteps
nature’s unforgiving mistake
struggled out of the sea
in his eyes a kingdom of kindness
saintly irises captivating
a brave man’s graceful stature
with his unbalanced steps
he balances the Universe
he searches for justice
pain of the unlike
vainly danced
in the expression of man
who limped out of the light waves
glance approved the disproportional
victorious triumph
against the unjust chaos
unequal side but an unsung song
non-rhyming poem
deficient erotic verse
aching heart of a mortal
begging for analogy
in the syllable of his smile
in the word of his uplifting courage
limping man unwritten poem
ready to spring out of my mind
to complete the day’s
incompleteness
Good Lord, were you drunk
when you fathered him?
Good Lord, have mercy on us,
don’t drink again!
