Crow Of A Headless Rooster Poem by Denny Moonde

Am a bird, flightless.
Caught up in a life ruthless
Another year of madness
My thoughts stained
Am headless, the pain no less.
I complain no one listens.
My silent nature yokes
The violent feelings
Waiting to be unleashed,
Unpoliced mind on a free-way
Lee-way.
Life free falling, tree falling!
Dry walls of my house
Absorb my cries in their cracks.
Nightmare the endless tossing
No meals for the family
Crow of a headless Rooster
Running, crying, headless.
Rain drenched chicken...In tow,
Hen, with chicks in check
Pecking on empty ground
Serendipity? Serenity? Insanity!
Am news that sells.
Deprived, malnourished.
Pa-zed Iliko bad.
My fall will be at a price
Weakened tortured soul,
Wise up, I rise; headless
Myself belief, not a hopeless place
In reverse my face a farce
To the jubilation and elation
I once bestowed on your pre-eminency
Humiliation awaits.
My potency for dependency
In essence a nuisance
To the fabric of innocence
For economic independence.
