An Eyesong
Save a smile
swap it with a tear
of a lonely heart
and see it sparkle
through your moistened eyes
Save a penny
swap it for the void
in a beggar's bowl
and feel fullfilled in
his million dollar smile
Save a tear
for those vacant ponds
static in streamless emotions
by gruesome sins wrought
in the garb of religion
My eyes sing
in pleasure and pain
with a tear choking
and the other emoting
from black and white keys
of my piano ....
