Get off the Bus

Thomas W Case



The barbarians and
cannibals are loose on
the streets, looking for
innocent hearts to eat.
The silly and simple sit
blindly, while we watch
their demise with
brutal and vivid vision.

Get off the train to
the animal factory,
and go right, to the
verdant pastures of
righteousness and
peace.

        Good write T. Yes, in my Cuckoo Land I had to get off the No.11 bus. I was going to Mars, but they said I needed the No.7 bus to go there, as the No.11 goes to Jupiter! lol. Do ya see me through your telescope waiting at this bus stop in Outer Space?!

        To go there directly seems to be to choose death as a shortcut. Hopefully those verdant pastures of righteousness and peace are not just a bill of goods for water front property in Florida that is noting more than a lot on a sewage canal. A good read my friend that strikes home

        Excellent job, Thomas! And I ever do so concur with our good friends arqios and Soren! Heck, oddly enough, I can also vouch for Orchi! But better left unexplained! 🀣

        We still have time to choose kindness and healing before it is consumed by the darkness. Well Done Brother and congratulations on your new book. Any information you can provide on how to get my poetry published on Amazon or anywhere would be greatly appreciated.
