Marina Gascho
Sheepish
Where is the wool he pulled over our eyes?
How did he fool us without a disguise?
He’s more than a wolf—he’s a full pack
yet worse is the monster that rules at his back
Are we but dumb sheep in a house of fake brick?
Will we sleep as it crumbles under his kick?
Time to scatter the wolves and cast off the beast
Let’s gather the lambs, black, white, and least
Marina Gascho writes to keep her head from exploding. Most of her thoughts and ideas are channeled into short stories or novels of the speculative kind. These she hoards and polishes. Once in a while her over-active mind vents a poem, which she is happy to share.
