PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Goodnight morning glory.

I can’t express how removed I actually am.

Today while riding side saddle,

I saw things for sale on lawns and clearance items

huddled in the sun.

I saw cardboard maps guiding the way

to where I wasn't going.

I saw my future standing on stage

in it’s onesies, zipped up the front

and ready to gut you clean.
