William Curlee Poet Dramatic Verse

Always Assume

I live
where the other world meets reality
Always Assume


ignoring, staring
at blinding glances of sun rays

I die
alone in a crowded room
echoed stress
deafening what’s assumed

Assume wrong
and wrong you will be 

Assume long 
and think of what they see

Assume strong
and read each body note

Assume gone
and despair overruns hope
