Lost

by Charles J Hannan

Underneath a bed of coals
Hot enough to char existence
I fester with emotions
That escape my solitude

Hunger eats away my entrails
Leaving a shell

An empty lot on forget street

A bullet with no gun
A clap of thunder with no lightning
Sounding lost

In a storm
Whirling around..a soul
crying to get out

Singed enough to leap from inside me
Limping a smokey trail of tears
Out from this cage of flesh

God can only sigh and turn his head
Another drop of blood
Another sinner, dead
