 The Old Barn


The blushing barn barks
With bleeded hues
Gutted girders
The once held the strict structure
Now hold hollow hidey holes
For all the remaining vermin
While the festering flesh
Of the butchered beasts
Burn the sinuses of strangers
Who walk through the burnt broken building

'The Old Barn'
The Old Man said,
'Was like a Signal to Them.'
'Like a Tractor Beam.'
But who are 'Them?'
The Journalist asked.
'YOU KNOW!, THEM!'
He banged his fists on the table
The journalist gritted her teeth
And carried on with the interview.
She was getting a bit fed up with
It all, to be honest.

The Old Barn

Out on Route 45, past Williamsford,
the folks have a saying,
and with hesitant lips I repeat,
"Don't go messin' round the old barn."

The skeletons, literal and otherwise,
make up the walls, and only to be held
up by phantoms limbs,
the remnants of dead desires.

Take a picture, write a poem,
but leave the structures core alone.
Don't say you were not warned.
Don't ever say you were not warned.

I feel sad
Can you feel it?
