The Futility of Attachment
A memory of a man
Suspended from the coarse necklace; a punishment for his sin.
Motionless weight, dead weight.
Silky tufts of trembling silvery hair;
The only sign of life's abandonment.
Gently as the blissful breeze blows it's protest-
An empty gesture of grace-
His once young locks...revitalised.
A thought; even a pitiful gale would fail to summon but the swaying of a blue headed pale bodied dead man.
