Street Roots • June 8-14, 2018 Street Poetry Just Another... Wanting to See by Aileen McPherson by Daniel Cox Long haul days, short stormy nights Angelic terrors fly through darkened rooms, Crack goes the whip, I’ll work harder, you scream, brace against the pain, Death be kind release me. Reality, twas only, a dream? Throat a parched desert, Seeking Waters of life, where are you this night? Thank the Gods, close at hand, I’ll survive another night, like every other, Merely another nightmare. Healing by Eileen Vizenor I long to heal. From the past. An evil controller. Never to repeat. But to grow. To learn. To see. To help. To like and love, again. Do not define nor confine me. For today, I am healing. Page 13 Shrouded in mystery. The statue stood proud and tall. Awaiting to be unveiled It was the spitting image of the king His eyes waiting to see The world. i-j. à i ». -A« > Á, ¿e- x ¿ jl jju
