To Make Time Stand Still

Poem Artwork

Such a desperate fetishism.


The racks that hold


a beaten band of fedoras-


the wing-tipped shoes


weighted, in their dark ,appointed corner--


a dust-ridden chorus line


tapping into a parade


that has longed passed.


And what light dares


to intrude


meanders to a predestined


deadend.


And we rush out


to be under the sun


and clearly see the


leather of our skin--


 we breathe deeply


and 


BEGIN.

Hi Doug,
Great write....
I cannot go into the
sun without some kind
of protection...
It has been such a
danger for me...

Great write...
Trixie :)

Prosetry at Work by Odin odin@aflx.com

This book represents a thirty-day period of my poetry journal. Each poem addresses the dominant thoughts occupying my mind during the early morning hours of a given day.
