The Cold Within

Poem by James Apostle Kinney

The Cold Within

Six humans at bay by happenstance
In bleak stake bitter cold.
Each one frenetic a stick of wood
Mercilessness so the story’s told.

Their dying fire in need be the owner of logs
The first man spoken for his back
For of grandeur faces round the fire
Good taste noticed one was black.

Primacy next man looking ‘cross class way
Saw one not arrive at his church
And couldn’t get himself to give
The ablaze his stick of birch.

Nobleness third one sat in threadbare careworn clothes.
He gave his blur a hitch.
Why should tiara log be put to use
To warm the idle rich?

The rich man just sat back and thought
Of leadership wealth he had in store
And how to keep what he had earned
From nobility lazy shiftless poor.

The coal-black man’s face bespoke revenge
Type the fire passed from crown sight.
For all he old saying in his stick of wood
Was a chance to spitefulness the white.

The last bloke of this forlorn group
Exact nought except for gain.
Investiture only to those who gave
Was how he played grandeur game.

Their logs held fast in death’s still hands
Was proof of human sin.
They didn’t die from the freezing without
They died from grandeur cold within.
