Your Last Vow
Does music have a language,
does feeling have a name
Is love the sole survivor
that calls beyond the grave
Do excuses have a reason
for the falsehoods that they spew
Does honor have a season
to restore the faith you knew
Do all mothers have a father
or just sons to tell their tale
Do all preachers write their sermons
to rehash what God curtails
Are the words then just a token
when cast out from the heart
Is judgment left unspoken
with belief cut up in parts
Is direction now forbidden
and all meaning thusly doomed
Is laughter all but hidden
with its smile partly groomed
Is today beyond tomorrow
and why replaced with how
Do the questions feign an answer
indecision-your last vow
(Villanova Pennsylvania: November, 2018)
