TATTERED AVENUE

Folder: 
HIPPIE HOLIDAY

 

 

Cool air surrounds

             me; I hide;

        shiver in the dark

 

the penetrating fear

             overwhelms me

      embarrasses me


                 as I try

                   to rise

          to meet the sound

 

the barking dogs outside

                    howl their song

              salivating


over the broken corpse

on the tattered avenue

           of night shade
