Poetry Sunday ~ Two Alpha Males

Gen 4:9 “And the LORD said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not: Am I my brother's keeper?”

Two Alpha Males

Two Alpha males; stiff raised tails 
Evident hate for one another
Circling around with insolent sound
not friend, not father nor brother.

They’ll never know the daily blow
my soul had to take for them.
They’ll never know the pain although
they pool in their self-made phlegm

They think they’ll undo all that’s done
though no one holds the power
to fill my soul in a crumbled soup bowl
in their passive clouded shower.

Their souls misaligned I can’t define
the mismatched ego's they boost.
No one saw the pain; my time in the rain
Abandoned was I to roost.

Will one of them dare to give a care
for the woman they leave behind?
Grieve all alone, no soul of their own
I’ll soon be gone from their mind.

It pains me to say to this very day
the males make the path they take.
No Omega to roam the place called home
their lives a shattered earthquake.

May one day they see the deserted me
while chancing my love with their dance
I’m not impressed with fist thumping chest
Drifting alone I advance.

God be with you both 

Isa. 40:6-8 “The voice said, Cry. And he said, What shall I cry? All flesh is grass, and all the goodliness thereof is as the flower of the field:
The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: because the spirit of the LORD bloweth upon it: surely the people is grass. The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever.
