We Move On, We Have To, If We Do Not, What Are We? Poem by RIC BASTASA

We Move On, We Have To, If We Do Not, What Are We?



the eye for beauty
has malfunctioned

what used to be a sharp
color has become a blunted
dullness

there were no blinks
the stares are stabbing right into the
heart of the matter

what is happening to you?
why did you succumb to such a stillness?

idol of the sculptress
the new prince of the trees?

we move on, we have to,
if we do not, what are we?
