Resurrection Tuesday

Resurrection Tuesday 


The subversive scheme 

of  benevolent  intention

Fades with the last smile of summer 

Sounding an aluminum voice

With an echo of  fragile breath

Silence interrupts the

Applause of thunder

Sentiments of affection 

Now a crippling disability 

Unable to outrun the future

Your long ago in pursuit 

On the heels of memory's  shadow.

Littering an already tortured landscape 

with leaves of a weathered  reputation    

The forecast calling for a season  of scandal

Created on this resurrection Tuesday.
