Hilltops In the Haze

Coming back home.
On your own.
Morning mist.
In the rain.
Nothing is the same.
Get going, man,
Back home again.
Another time, a different person.
Cable cars move me down the road.
Kites torn and wet on the ground.
Hilltops in the haze.
Onerous and erroneous,
My acrostic a broken cheese grater.
Everything's greater at home.

Love this. I agree with Richard. Great "atmospheric resonance" He sure puts things in a cool way!

Hi Matt, you inspired me to write a poem. It doesn’t follow your rules but I had fun writing it. I thought you might enjoy giving it a read. Thanks for the inspiration.
