script

by Mary Frances Spencer

dialog limited
death permeating

fists heavy on weapons
grasping for dollars
sort of a western
the story never ends
but rolls around bitter
lips pinched angry

unable to tear open
necessary windows
we plod through
preconceived
conditions
and gasp the stale

page after page
waiting until it’s too late
now burns
eyes don’t see

read between these lines
write something fresh
tomorrow

We all need to write something fresh tomorrow. And yet, tis the most difficult thing for we are so stuck in our ways. Nice write lady.

Every poem is a motion, it may continue its movement, or remain still waiting for some wonderful disturbance!
