Stoned And Broke Ode Of Blindy Poem by Gio Masserati

Stoned And Broke Ode Of Blindy



Stoned and Broke

Ode of Blindy


Here I stand
All stoned and broke

But in my misery
I find some hope

It's not too easy
And it's not too safe

If the good Lord willing
I'll keep my faith


-Blindy


A Vet I sat across from
on Amtrak Train heading
to Southern California
Blindy said he wrote this
One and only poem between
1975 & 1976
Blindy Is blind and also
Goes by the name, Mel Libby
He is currently residing in
Washington State.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM
Mahtab Bangalee 13 September 2018

in train- unfamiliar face, caste, body shape and color, dressing style coming, sitting, gossiping, laughing, smiling, weeping, crying, eating, drinking and leaving so many language, so many speech, so many words but at my destination all are disappeared - I am alone getting down at autumnal evening
