witness: a fragment



by horace p sternwall



endless dragons are endlessly slain
only to rise and be slain again
no sooner has good triumphed
than by a bad guy off it is bumped

the universe spins around
empires rise and fall in a blink
really making you stop and think

i knew a man named cy
who watched the world go by
he was always bumming rides
so that he could run away and hide

a puppet on a string
gets to witness many things
and when his memoirs he begins to write
suddenly a great light ———
