A scowling wind in the dimlit sky <br />A swarm of eyes and an evil sneer <br />A poor man hung and left to die <br /> <br />The reason is clear but who knows why? <br />His face is pale but wears no fear <br />A scowling wind in the dimlit sky <br /> <br />He doesn't speak, no use to try <br />Why whisper in the devil's ear? <br />A poor man hung and left to die <br /> <br />A rag-winged man ought not be alive <br />A penniless man worth not a tear <br />A scowling wind in the dimlit sky <br /> <br />He counts his worth with a feeble sigh <br />And wonders why he's even here <br />Poor man hung and left to die <br /> <br />His good heart hangs in heaven high <br />Away from every soul too mere <br />The reason is clear but who knows why? <br />Look not away, but Near.<br /><br />Tyler Mason<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/look-not-away-but-near/
