Run Aways

Run Aways

A Poem by Smithie Austin McLyn
"

Slavery Era

"

The river to freedom

Just washing away the past

Simply afraid to be found

So the only option is to keep running

Facing their fears day and night

Just hoping that the next day it will end

Their past haunts them as they go

Danger always seeking in every turn…

One once a slaved man

The other the “dead man” walking

Both now partners in crime.
