Saturday It aches… Innocence fights to clear its name Till it dies Murdered by the eyes -- \ I preserve my prayer For invisibility In solitude Where faith resides -- / What’s left A cigarette filled ashtray The sound of a burning spear Song Without the verses Postmodern Commodity Old But where in this bureaucratic world Is the warriorpoet’s cry? -- _ In silence? In swallowed screams? In castrated dogs? In ragged children’s tears? One is always a child It's the only one who can lead Not an adolescent A slave to sex An infant who survives Embryonic blows - = Forgotten cuts One thought invisible Multiply Like eyes Published & Copyright Malachi Doyle 2026.
