A Senseless Stone Poem by Frank Okoth

A Senseless Stone



If you had ears
then it could not be hard
to make you hear me,
You don't have eyes
to see what am talking about,
The words of your mouth
can not even be heard by a fly,
And that's because you are a stone,
you have made your heart inhuman,
what a person!

Great! ! You metaphorically say your love(I think she must have a poker face) a stone! I like this.

What an imagery frank. thought the poem will go deep enof to guide us to the object of comparison with a senseless stone. anyway...the semblance of 'unyielding' and 'unrsponsive' politicians to the plights of the governed could be a fitting symbol of a senseless stone...kudos man.
