Homage Poem for critique
Waiting (in homage to John Steinbeck and Dylan Thomas)
It is a dingy, water drab sky/
cast above the sea/
now sunk low and sullen/
by the weight it bears/
stanza break/
at the town, its concrete rooms/
stand mute in echoing hues/
drip drip dripping/
from their hulking walls/
stanza break/
the people slump, peer out/
no walking dogs today/
or coffee by the surf/
no bounce or shout of banter/
stanza break/
friends wait, see if it will clear/
resume their listless thoughts/
until the sun returns/
to brighten every face.//
