THE READER
What happens to your name
After it is written down?
...
Does it fly to the dead and
remind
Them of the beauty they have
lost?
-Or-
Does it travel the world
slipping
Poison into the cups of
little tyrants?
-Or-
Does it blow from town to
city dripping
Glue in to the eyes of
racists?
-Or-
Does it turn in to grass
Where grass is needed most?
-Or-
Does it hang from a chain
In the shape of a cross?
-Or-
Does it fall in to a poor
man’s dream
Sparkling like a stream of gold?
-Or-
Does it sit by your side
Watching you grow old?
What happens to your name
After it is written down?
