wayne bright Poems

Deadly and faceless, indistinct and racist
It has no future, it has no past
You will die first, and it will die last
It wont need shelter, it wont need food
...

metal on metal, the engine whines
the oil thins out, moving parts grind
metal on metal, the first signs show
oil consumption, bearings start to go
...

Your walking on thin ice baby
But you don't care
Theirs no clothes on your body
Your feet are bare
...

I have the power
That comes with the emblem on my crest
I have the courage
Of the lion tattooed on my chest
...

It felt so right
So young so tight
Almost got the noose on me
But because of you
...

You told me that you knew
What she was doing all the time
Condemning all her actions
When she had committed no crime
...

The generals played at their war games
They laid it down now its all history
On that day they sent us in
The scene was set for another tragedy
...

Well,
Ive gone and done it again
Lost another girlfriend
The millennium snakes unsmitten
...

WAS IT THE SHADOW OF DEATH
WAS IT THE SETTING SUN
THAT BROUGHT ON THAT FEELING
THAT YOU HAD NOWHERE TO RUN
...

FORCED INTO DESOLATION
LIFE IS NOW A FIGHT
BURNING IN THE DAYTIME
FREEZING IN THE NIGHT
...
