Last of a kind.

Hard river you never smile at me,

but I don't cry,

two thousand hearts held back a tear,

but I don't try.

You always play my game,

never hear the loud voices

of ritual and ridicule.

never even bothered to look for him,

Given up hope of seeing

the soothing hell fires.

It was a cold, dull morning,

But there must have been a warning.

Wrong time on the clock,

That's the trouble

when they tick but never tock.

They can use their hands

for other work,

Grab at the throat

with spasmodic ****

The last of a kind,

scarred by being trapped

Life-rock for some, Alarming ignorance,

Obsession will come, Sweet sensation.
