Walled Street Walled Nation



Take a walled street for what the right of
Passage by the citadel truly re-represents
Rhyme sounds meaningful as symbols clash for
Whom symbols' form to reason by means of
Making observations and experiences connect
Gaming rites to represent father theories of
Man - invested becoming imagoes of children
Captured as graffiti artists chalk marking symbols
Of boxes on street slabs of walk - a game theory
Of love loss charity giving gifts hidden away











(Lee B. Mack, Walled Street Walled Nation, page 2 of 2)



Take a walled boundary for what a nation fails
A greatness imagined but games of an evil sent
Well concocted for expatriated peasantry from
Shores of Europe to lands of climates and spices
To re-represent irrational reasoning of vagabond
Norman-French-English descended Greek, Roman
Nomad and all the infamy of Eastern and Western
Kings queens jesters courts - just as evil as all
Seagoing vessels of hell -sent out from berths to sail
In ink of seas dark - ghost ships pass routes of arks

A light house of divinity cast its beams upon
The surface of salty seas to clean to freshness a
Smoked meat sense of taste -the only wall exists
To climb the mist less thick around a waterfall
From ground to ear the lone sense to tune
To orchestrate have left but to see to look
For good grace found looking down upon a hymn
Making sense in a full orchestra of six harmonies
Keeps time - conscience understanding breakdancing
Has no grammar no classical subscription to lottery
To love loss charity theories of gifts hidden away...
