Cheating again...

So I just saw the time and realized that I had yet to even log on here. Obviously not enough time to put some funny little anecdote about today, though looking back I don't know if there was any. Regardless, I have a dozen or so poems, so I am going to cheat again and post another one.

You stand there,
never moving,
never changing,
forever staring at my back.
I know you.
You have wisdom,
locked within
Your freezing,
stone eyes.
And you have yet
to ever find
me worthy enough
to impart
your knowledge,
upon my willing ear.
Knowledge acquired from
long forgotten nights,
when the roaring fire
that you guard,
blazed as bright
as a memory.
And the clever men
with their stylish pipes,
boasted to one another
about things they
would never see
and you would come to know
all too well.

-The Sentries
