Dorsey Baker Poems

Youth runs away from you
Faster than a rabbit can run down the road
Quicker than
A flash of lightning
...

It's cold in the house
Where no love is alive
It's cold in the house
Where the wounded is
...

Sun bright the happy skies
Before dark angry clouds invade
A poison leaf
Welcome a drop of rain
...

Remembering world war two
Caught off guard
Hit so very hard
Remembering world war two
...

Mouths of the demons multiplying
As fast as the roaches run
From the light
Serpents crowding
...

She opened the door just wide enough
To come in
She was fully unclothed
She slept
...

Don't want no war
Lurking overhead
Over your house
In your street
...

Baby don't be too quick!
To show me everything
Because when you
Show me everything
...

It's old age
And it don't seem to
Get no respect nowadays!
It's old age
...

Eyes that sparkle
Skin smooth as silk
Sweet personality
Sexy and smart
...
