A Throw Back Thursday poem from 1994, when I believe I was a high school junior. I once attempted to translate this into Spanish for a class assignment, but I cannot find that and it was probably all wrong anyway.
Sinister Eyes
There once was a man
with sinister eyes
that could pierce your body through
He lived in the darkness
in his own little world,
but longed for something more
There came a day
when this sinister man
knew Death was at his door
He tried to fight back,
but could not succeed,
then collapsed from an awful disease
Now his sinister eyes
are tightly shut,
his arms folded over his chest.
It is hard to believe
such a misfortunate man
could have such a tranquil rest.
Terree L. Klaes copyright 1994
