"I Believe"

August 9, 2018 by San Quentin News Contributor

In comparison to the many legs of a Centipede.

Hurriedly, moving in unison like a stampede.

I travel thru life, trying to accomplish what I need

While opposed to empowering my depression demons to feed.

I do not covet my soul to continue to bleed,

The realization dawned that would not succeed.

Dejectedly, my soul will never be freed.

I yearn for someone to directly intercede.

Humanely taking up the lead, sowing a productive seed.

Helplessly, I concede, there is no one to impede,

Instead, they permit the demon seed to grow like a weed.

I beg and plead my life to persevere and proceed.

A tiny bead of relief is better than death indeed,

This I believed is my creed to heed.

That’s Noise…
