Out of the Frying Pan, Into the Fire

Mutley Ravishes

I’m from a war zone 

I have a new ‘home’

I ride on a horse 

Called Tro-

-jan

I know how to use 

Weapons

I’m a pawn in

Someone else’s game 

Isn’t it a shame 

I’ve been brain-

washed

Like the folks coming under 

The cosh

In my new home 

When I was a kid

My imagination roamed 

Galaxies

    The imagination of children is limitless and here is expressed some of it. Fun and nicely worded.

      Thanks, Soren. The poem was supposed to be “serious “! Maybe I should stick to comedy.

      • sorenbarrett

        Many of my poems are taken different than I intend when I write them. That is the beauty of poetry.

        We might be pawns now, but hopefully we'll be transformed when we reach the other side.

        • Mutley Ravishes

          Yes, lots of work to do.

            When I play chess(not well) I attack with the rooks, and sacrifice the bishops. It's a blood bath but if my pawn becomes transformed I win.

              A blood bath…… I guess it’s coming.
              Anyways , the seed of unique potential is just waiting to be watered!

              It is what it is.
