One Night, But a Heavy Meaning - Stream of Consciousness

in poetrylimericks •  6 years ago 
  • a crude drawing
    on the hotels walls
    the face of a monkey
    a red face
    drawn in chalk
    washed away
    water dripping

  • flooding the halls,
    they filled and filled
    until the entire city
    was sunken
    beneath the sea

  • a bright light,
    we covered our eyes,
    and dove beneath the waves
    to discover
    the past
    and the truth within

  • the hunger we had
    was abated
    the smooth sounds
    of the dolphins cry
    echoing
    through the streets
    what used to be
    populated living.

  • a sadness
    in the minds
    of those who witnessed
    the past
    the bombs
    before they exploded.
