Falling Petals, Flowers of Youth
Daniel Baxley
Falling Petals, Flowers of Youth
The heat of the fight
raged in their being
as they hit the street
in white hot fury
shots sang out
like a wicked
independence day salute
young sons of
fatherless mothers
collapsing in a crimson deluge
of endless despair
hopelessness animated
in the death of angry youth
no nine to five
mortgage, diploma, or dreams
these little children suffer
as we sit in fortresses of fear
