Where Are Poem by Hebert Logerie

Where are
You?
You must be at war
Again with yourself
You
Poor elf.

How is
Your health?
Please
Wealth
Is not important
When you're so sick
So insignificant
Next to the creek
Don't be a freak
Be wise and compliant.

Money is not
What you think it is
Being a nut
Is not a way to ease
The pain and suffering
Keep on dreaming
And mesmerizing
About another ring.

Where are
You?
Still at war
Sitting in the pew?
