Turtle


Note the turtle- man extant

He knows just when to hide.


He heads his way slow but strong

And threatened, draws in his shell for long.


Carried away he soon will die.  The choice is his by birth.

Conquered there he soon is splat, but then he doesn't care.

Staggering

Staggering, a yoke on his back. Waiting, waiting for death, then life. Thorns, blood, smeared vision. Anguish, of a thousand pounds, people Watching, jeering, jabbing. He       falls. A friend, the yoke lifted, momentarily. Clothes tattered, knees bleeding. Needed strength, fopr one more step. Humiliated, to a mere man, since birth. Thirty-two years, gone? No. Ages and peoples, fulfilled.
