THE INNOCENTS OF RICHARD

KARY P. PIKE 1973 (Jamestown, NY)



THE VAGUE INNOSCENTS OF RICHARD


IT WAS NOT LOVE, THAT SET ITSELF OUT OF YOUR WORLD.

NOR, THE BLIND PANES, OF DALLIED STARS.

THEIR CARBON LIFE;

THEIR MYTHS,

LOST IN MATHEMATICS.

SO… FOR YOUR EYES - THOSE TWO SCHOOLS OF LORED BLUE

CULL OF HAPPENED LEAVES,

FOR A GOBLINED PEN.

SO, UNTILL NOBLE HANDS CAN CORSE , AGAIN-

SHEATH THEIR LONGED SLEEP-

GREYED AS FAITHS LAST VOICE…


WRITTEN BY : KARY P. PIKE

About this poem

It’s a tribute of my life, before my best friend passed. It’s with his help, that we created works together, and in the best way friends can, and be related …through space and time. I love you so much, Richard. Your inspiration, will alway lay in my arms.
