A human male of the weaker sex
opens up his room and looks upon
the sprawling world below that, so complex,
remains so simple.
With sand beneath his eyelids, he looks on
as nothing happens right before his eyes.
There was a bird, but now that it has gone,
the trees are now still.
The poppler branches quiver at the skies,
or what is left: with buildings standing ill,
set scratching air whilst turn-coat breezes cry.
The boy feels the cold.
The breezes came from houses on the hill
that left their doors wide shut (to kill the noise).
Instead the boy sits cold and frozen still;
He alone hears it.
A human male of the weaker sex
returns back to his room, back to his fears,
and once where all the questions were complex,
they're now so simple.
- Title: Weak
- Artist: Dharmawan
- Description: I just wanted to write something about a really cold dreary day. But then this turned into a poem packed with what I see as (rather weak) imagery and symbolism. If you knew a bit more about me, it might make sense, but it doesn't need to. Comment if you like, comment even if you don't.
