Cody O'Hara Poems

This cloud above us
Grey, bleak, dead

Drains us of life
...

Every child knows the answers
Every adult knows the questions

Yet it seems that no matter
...

Through this sea
Like great Odysseus

I must find my way
...

In every joke,
Every smile

Lies the fear
...

My deepest fear
Is not tangible

No mere phobia,
...

The weed
Never wilting

Looms above
...

The sun sets
On an age

Passing in
...

I thought you cared enough
Foolish of me, haha

I thought deep down you accepted me
...

I whimper as he laughs
His menacing expression
Piercing my soul
...

Horribly wonderful
Both the doom
And savior of man
...
