Poetry (It's Not Just For Sissies Anymore) - [Matthew]

This is a piece I wrote during a rewrite of my film Blackwater Elegy. In the end we didn't include it, but I still like it a lot.

When The Day Is Done

When the day is done
When the sun steals away
When night falls soft around us

May the workers sleep
May the sleepers dream
And may the dreamers smile

May the children sing
May the people drink
And may everyone dance

May the sinners change
May the wronged forgive
May what’s lost be found

May the weary rest
May the weary rest
May the weary rest

When the day is done
When the sun steals away
When night falls soft around us

[end ping]

Your poem kicks butt, man. Why hven't any of the regulars on this blog posted anything about yet? Can you do a sonnet?

PS: What is 'Etctera'? Like a radio show or smothing?
