I embraced Tuesday
into the murky depths
of concrete eyes
after suffering Monday
drifting to submerged mistakes
losses and cries
and fondling Sunday sublime
with my long distance lover
howling for the duties of Saturday
remembering the trysts of Friday
following the depths of Thursday
oh stab me and drive me
to go
to tick
and die
on Wednesday
I love this write, Andrew! Your use of language here is nothing short of perfect for this write. It packs the right kind of punch and even in its brevity...it feels like taking a trip with someone...a fast and furious one, no less.
