Poetry by: Lucas Turner-Harris
I wrote this poem December 8, 2014.
What the future holds I can’t predict.
I envision a fantasy that is unreal, probably nonexistent.
I hope to dream and pray to accept belief,
Of what is still uncertain to me.
Life holds a challenge I accept,
Regardless what fate may bring, what bee may sting.
I simply don’t care to stop and stare,
In the eyes of those who hinder my metaphorical snare.
I am me, standing five feet above the ground,
Listening to mother earth and her sound.
Ignoring the wolves that stalk and howl,
For I am always above you like an owl.
Seeing eye to eye with reality,
Doesn’t necessarily mean comprehending formality.
Saying goodbye to complacency,
And low-leveled latency.
Late and see, late and see.
Thou shall not ever hate on me.
Apathetic in instances, that’s not me.
Keeping far distances, that’s guaranteed.
