Poetry For Everyday People
Gladiators
I can't speak
in terms of relevance
as my heart flickers,
a candle, in time,
kindness is beautiful,
in turn, I haven't been
able to kill a fly, a
roach, a lizard etc...
in many many years,
the day came
when I couldn't
do it anymore,
it used to be easy,
not a second thought,
step on it, kill it,
move on,
now I feel it,
living, looking
for food, shelter
and I just don't
feel the right, to
kill anything,
please don't picture
a fragile man here,
kindness is a warrior,
resilient, tolerant,
ferocious, intuitive,
individuals
making
everyday
stands.
