Heart Attack
A flashing image fills my mind,
A Crucifix, attacked by Art;
All for One, offered to all
Transfixed by the demon’s dart,
The love one only hopes to find
Hung suspended on the wall.
In groves of pulsing neon sign,
A thought-web, tangled by design,
Flex the muscles of the Heart
Grown weak in sands of wasted time;
Prove the virtue torn apart
In the desolate ways of War.
