Moving Day


A calm settled in
as he ascended the twelve
steps



to the open platform
of the hangman’s’ gallows
the heavy noose
swinging



like an old friend it awaited
he smiled slightly at first
then relinquished into a
toothy grin
ear to ear


He had never feared death
in all it’s forms
only
rebirth
regardless of the
verdict


Just or unjust
no matter
on this day
he was ready
it was
moving day

Moving day...excellent title for an Obit. I worked for a newspsper where obiys were...
Here's a pen Mrs. Dixon. Please fill out the blanks, name, address, DOB, Deceased date and survivors. It was a template and how impersonal is that. I always beefed it up.

Blessings and love,
Susan

stirring in the allegories; prophetsic/apostle you in its twelve steps, as disciples. .. unwavering faith before a vacillating final act. .
the release of the coup de gras. .the knowing that you must ahve to accept your own mortality; its of the fire.eating/breathing kind. ..hence some kind of phoenix reborn. ..akin with all that fire- --
and the matters of not or why....when your spirit is free, it will be matter.less. . .. .
and i do sense your spirit being so free. ..already. ..
heavy thing this, but heaven indeed. . ..that freedom you seek.
blessings~

Loved the picture of the gallows, and the rather metaphorical, "Moving day".
