Joyce Johnson Poet Rictameter

A Necessary Evil

clangor
repeating noise
echoing in my head
raucous alarm awakens me
bringing back turbulent reality
stirring anger and resentment
strident, clamorous noise, 
starting day of
clangor

Rhonda Johnson-Saunders May 29, 2012 at 1:15 PM Is that the alarm clock, I hear? I guess you're not a morning person. Or is it the neighbor's annoying car alarm? I'm annoyed just thinking about it. Well done, Joyce! Best wishes in the contest. Love and Blessings, Rhonda
