Border Disorder by Jen Sorensen, TheNib, June 20, 2018 |
William Blake illuminated poem. |
God has vanished and
Man still corrupts,
Building monuments to greed.
As he prospers, things
Die without a sigh.
Children cry, their tears
Bear witness that something
Has died without a cry.
What Phoenix can rise
Out of cold ashes
From soil planted with hate?
George Salamon lives and writes in St. Louis, MO.
