poetry; awake, sleeper

Another poem from the hospital! Also, if you can figure out which verse of the Bible the title refers to you are... super cool I guess. Or you've just studied the Bible a lot. Or both.


We have waged wars of words, words, words,
And fallen from cliffs like suicides into the sea,
And when we were raised up, battered from our fall,
We raised our fists and voices to the sky,
And let the heavens tremble down upon us,
Like David calling blindly out to God,
And when we were exhausted down to whispers,
Like the wind stroking through the leaves,
We turned our words upon each other,
And jumped like suicides into the sea.


Also, all this out put recently has been basically due to having nothing to do, being as I'm half-way in between when I left the hospital and when I'm allowed to go back to work. I will not always be posting at this obnoxious of a rate.
