Stone Among Clay
As the rightful sentence echoes through sweaty division and humid hostility,
conviction kisses his countenance
while confirmation photographs the cute couple for keepsake.
His outspoken body stands to claim its grip of self-sustained authority;
Shaking fists, clenching reason, straining blame, pointing chalky fingers
with a chalk covered slate
All against the reverberations of righteousness.
Penetrating our eyes to sight
shedding light
decongesting air
darkness disperses
and retreats to the menagerie
of its' owners' hardened heart
for all to finally see.
