Weary Road
Jan 28th, 2010 | By Gary Beck | Category: Poetry | 237 viewsI have traveled far,
a rootless wanderer
singing the praises of man,
mouthing the phrases of fools.
Ruled by the hand of dawn,
city, your shadows are silence
that lead me to desolate roads,
with no end to journeys.
At night the stars surrender
to your shattering glare, city,
that winks in flirting allure
and urges me on to Babylon .
