Vicki Acquah Poet Dramatic Verse

Notes About The Poem

DOOM GLOOM BAD VIBES

Imminent Grief

IMMINENT GRIEF


Something is wrong?
What, not sure yet ...
Tears roll....
Emotions flare,
As they keep changing.

Danger and Doom
Play ping pong
On my time table.

Waiting, watching to see
Who loses this game.
I do not want to, nor do I
"must have to know"
more about this heavy gloom.

Something is wrong
What has yet to be revealed? ---
What Is troubling me?

I just know how gentle the wind feels
Right before the torrents of rain fall.
Ring phone, ring  !..

Tell me who has scored higher
In this game of table tennis...
I know how it feels.

When something is awry
I know just how it feels
When something is not right.

Suspense keeps creeping
up the back of my neck, making it stiff.
Just another way life plays tricks
On sensitive people's imminent grief.

Vicki Acquah June 27, 2016 at 10:25 PM seems my gut was right.. 7 months later the final blow... my healthy only daughter Feb 6 2016 has made her transition. She leaves 3 children ages 8 through 21. Her name was Kai Wingo...google her name and see how wonderful she is. :cause of death ."FASTING", and she lost her potassium! I am just now able to digest this.

Vicki Acquah August 8, 2015 at 3:55 AM Turns out a best buddy was sick-Also turns out that my Issue's have issues... What I thought was a rattle in my car for potholes, turns out to be transmission problems. Which means no help to get fixed up. Issue being now that I do not have a car. I thought I should sell it. Turns out now the only key is now lost. Okay so there you have it- My Issues now have Issues. Vicki Acquah May 17, 2016 at 1:28 AM Now even later . My Only Daughter has fasted, lost her potassium and died after being onlife support got 7 days. I am totally grief stricken/ and my life has been a living he'll since. HER NAME WAS KAI Wingo Google her name and you will find out why she is such a great loss,not just to me,but to all of society. Vicki Acquah May 17, 2016 at 1:28 AM Now even later .

Vicki Acquah August 8, 2015 at 3:47 AM Not as well as usual however when things have been "f i ne" for so long, I guess I can say I have had more good days than bad, Hopefully this storm shall pass and I can then renew my writing spirit.
