Let It Stop, I Pray : A Freewrite Poem.
Source
The sound was horrible
So was the dog bark
I picked the race, jumped the fence
It followed me, mission compromised
....
...
...
A single mistake, two years in jail
The bark still hunt me, even till date
Just one robbery, one raid
Brought me this low to shame.
...
..
Son came, crying as ever
Dad, why go steal in Denver
No food, no money, am a father
So I robbed, to bring it to you on a plater
....
...
Repenting, don't know which to choose
Christian came, Muslim peace
In prison, got to choose
Allah Akbar, in months time.
...
...
Then it became intense, dog's bark
Never leave me, not a day
I've searched, any remedy to pay
Not even the Imam has a say.
