Grim's Thoughts. Poem by Gary Hembree

Grim's Thoughts.

Rating: 4.3


I've cried tears that turned to oceans.
Since the dawn of man, I have all ways been larking.
I judge not the color of skin, nor age, nor sex.
I rule time, and when it runs out I take it.
I am ruled by no god, nor will I bow to any.
I am anger, sorrow, I am sin fulfilled by man.
How I cry, and wish my eternal time would come to an end.
Until then, I will lark in the shadows and reap what is mine.

i was not familiar with lark as a verb. so i did a little online research. v.i. 3. to have fun; frolic; romp. 4. to behave mischievously; play pranks. i guess using lark is ok, but the defintions seem to make me think of activities i don't usually associate with anger, sorrow, and sin. well, MAYBE SIN! I have all ways been larking. ....i think you want always here. am i incorrect? thanks for sharing. bri :)
