A Tale of The Company

Posted on May 2, 2013 by Ken Marteney

Lock and load

Shameful road

Loving souls

Lumps of coal

Empty eyes

Fried minds

Never any good-byes

On the run

With a ton

All told

Lots of gold

Only lead

Many dead

Rat a tat tat!

Most in jail

Lots of tales

About loving souls

Morphing into lumps of coal

Sad empty eyes

Brilliant fried minds

Never any good-byes

I wrote this back in 2013. Every time I read it, it still cuts deep.
