Take a BowA Poem by Josh Anderson Actors always know how to play their part.
Broken against an alter I cannot reach
While I lie deaf to the sermon they're trying to preach Alone an angel in the land of sheep A lone man of sorrows, God have mercy on me Lay my head down on this bed of roses The thorns prick my side, but I'm too numb to notice Is time standing still, my eternity frozen Times standing still, the hour glass broken God can you see me, are you looking right now Can you see this actor taking a bow A performer worthy of a thorny crown Now hang me up just to cut me down © 2014 Josh Anderson |
