Laurence Overmire Poems

Truthfully, I say unto you,

The wise man who
Claims
...

He should have been born in another age
In another place, another time
The lord of some castle, or a wayfaring knight
A man of honor and distinction
...

Bully had a name
But I've forgotten
1966 too long ago
...

Hieroglyphic
mystery in ancient stone
wisdom old as Time
...

Funny how
Artists
Have to die
In order to make a living.
...

A person's perception of another
is limited to

fragmentary moments
...

Standing at the bottom of a huge cylindrical room
Surrounded by doors
All locked
Two chaps considered the situation.
...

For every *drop* of truth
there is a bucketful of fiction.
...

There's one thing we can't talk about
Ever: Religion
At least not in public
No way to discuss, analyze, comment or
...

Out of empty space
Wood, mud, boulder, brick and
Stone
He created completely new worlds
...
