S treet Roots • April 29-May 5, 2016 P age 13 Poetry Vlad about the man behind the myths Essays, art and poetry from Street Roots’ vendors by Tina Drake Purchase Sleeping Rough Burning through time, when everything is aligned. Anger seething; unsettled remorse. Hurtling through these feelings, hope dwindles to à simple gesture. Burning inside, his fire dares not abate. Heating the mind tempting sanity to bide. Shooting through the heat, not daring to miss a beat Hurtling through the abyss, not daring to miss a step. Honor faded within, power fears to abide. Churning within, never to begin. Claiming to know all, only to fail. Heathens rule, as all others fall. Claims to the throne, mean nothing more than a rendered bone, Faith fades within as craters form in the mind. Desire not felt in years burn his ears. Pandamonium within the fog, as one barks like a lost dog. Clearly ones mind unknown, docile the heart alone. ; Vengeance his this day and hour, it now ends his lust for power. the Street Roots Spring Zine from your vendor! Vendors spent 16 weeks writing their personal stories of homelessness with poetry, prose and art.
