Eye of our people

by Amanda   Feb 22, 2005


A flower wilts
a child dies
A murder case
and bloody cries

A new abduction
a funeral
the cemetary
is almost full.

A broken arm
a bruised face
running from a
police chase.

A papercut
a nasty look
theives, and killers
and nasty crooks.

This isn't happy
this isn't fun
the existence of mankind
is done

This is reality
this isn't fake
this is what the eye of our people
all create.

    "The eyes of the people"...interesting concept. I liked it a lot. I usually write in a darker, or more visionary tone, so it was a style I enjoyed a lot. If you get a chance, read some of my stuff, comments are always welcome. My older works are more like yours.
