John Lawless Poet Free verse

Dumpster Dawn

Rats argue with the seagulls.
An “eau de low tide” scent rides the fog.
As feral cats hiss at the sunrise
leashed dogs do their business
“tricks for treats” traitors.
The sound of traffic signals….”LAST CALL!”

Andrea Dietrich July 13, 2021 at 2:40 PM very original, John. This is what I love most about your poetry. It's always fresh and different. Well, maybe not always, but I'd say most of the time. you are definitely one of the most talented writers in my followed poets list John Lawless July 13, 2021 at 4:06 PM We try not to allow the poetic muse to get stuck in a poetic rut. Thank you for the high praise
