PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

You walk along

in solace

seeking the warmth

of the fireplace—

and I am

out for the evening

drinking and thinking

& trying

to wax poetic

It’s a wonder

we ever cross paths

what with the conflicts

of interest we hold

I can only shudder

to think of the chances

that the fates

have rolled for us—

Opportunity knocked

But nobody was home.
