Free Poem
May 12, 2011
Living, breathing, alive
Clanking, and clowning
Do you hear it?
Five thousand pounds
The realization blasted into his mind
They cowered to their knees
Bellowed, crippled, hobbled, and sickened
Like wet tissue paper
An automobile collision in his head
I am the Emperor
It awed all
Waving them like batons
Become what I can become
Snapped like celery
Big hands
Harness gone
Bar snapped
Crashed to the floor
Weightless
