Know Me Poem by Alistair Plint

Know Me



Like a Peacock
Tail feathers
spread wide
a colorful array
of every
masculine
bone
in the core
of the
mental
spirit

But feathers
fall
Kids
pick them up
Use them
to catch
a life
of dreams
come true

While the male bird
with the experience
and mind
The heart of flowers
the spirit
of a future
is set aside
unattended

The feathers begin
to wilt and grey
That bird's
heart
will die
today
