Lost Prophet Poem by Phil J Hambling

Lost Prophet

Rating: 5.0


Bearded bedraggled
Wandering preacher
Of measured Bible words
Shunned by the passing shoppers
Casting your message
With verve and passion
Yet Invisible to them
Devoted as they are
To their own religion
Bought in the church
Of retail
Marks of devotion
In bags of goods
Betray their faith
And on you speak
To the air
To the pigeons
Firm in your conviction
A lost prophet
