Edward Ibeh Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

Rabbit Hole

Descending
                the rabbit hole
                      of debt
                as he gambles
           away his hard-earned
                   money, his...
                       life is...
                    spiraling
                   downward.
                  His marriage
                   turns shaky
             as his wife threatens
            divorce proceedings if...
                          he
            keeps self-destructing.


                        (Yalto)

Ahyia Amankwah November 13, 2019 at 11:14 AM 'turns shaky' brings out everything one needs to know when one is 'descending... hole of debt'. Massive way of portraying realism in monetary challenges. Edward Ibeh November 13, 2019 at 2:47 PM Thank you, Ahyia:-) Most appreciated.

Caren Krutsinger September 26, 2019 at 7:29 AM The "rabbit hole" for sure! Edward Ibeh September 26, 2019 at 9:04 AM Thank you, Caren:-)

Vijay Pandit September 22, 2019 at 3:32 PM This flows so well to tell a cohesive story..despite the syllable restrictions of your invented form, Edward. Who better to write it that the one who designed it! Kudos!! Edward Ibeh September 22, 2019 at 4:27 PM Thank you so much, Vijay:-) Glad you liked it!
