Poems About Humankind Seeking Honest Critique

Dry Paper
The water droplets crash to the pavement
Damping down the air to a crisp,
"Remember you're mortal" they whisper
And nature will have its way
Despite your trust and toil and
The dry paper you inhabit.
The mist engulfs shallow lungs and
Damp clothes cling for comfort
As the sky's nectar descends on
Flesh and concrete alike, pressing faces
Against the clear glass square that
Hangs from the 17th floor wall.
They say the heavens open and
I can't say I'm a believer but
I do seize these moments when ...
Damping down the air to a crisp,
"Remember you're mortal" they whisper
And nature will have its way
Despite your trust and toil and
The dry paper you inhabit.
The mist engulfs shallow lungs and
Damp clothes cling for comfort
As the sky's nectar descends on
Flesh and concrete alike, pressing faces
Against the clear glass square that
Hangs from the 17th floor wall.
They say the heavens open and
I can't say I'm a believer but
I do seize these moments when ...

War
We are kept awake
by police helicopters
and women screaming
in the street.
Packs of hooligans
chant for the blood
of passers by.
We are all here
in this dull war.
Unaware of it,
yet still tortured by it.
There is one impossible cure:
We realise
that we are in it
together.
by police helicopters
and women screaming
in the street.
Packs of hooligans
chant for the blood
of passers by.
We are all here
in this dull war.
Unaware of it,
yet still tortured by it.
There is one impossible cure:
We realise
that we are in it
together.
