The Din

things to remember
things to forget
that's what she couldn't
get out of her head
smashing her skull
attempting to cull
the murder of hecklers
their million black feathers
slicing her soul to shreds

Jeff Connelly Date: 12/12/2019 7:43:00 PM Another mind blowing poem Maureen. May i guess that this too is about your accident? People standing around your broken body turned to crows would make quite a din.

Pat Adams Date: 10/9/2017 10:36:00 PM Dark but deep. Terrifying to think ghosts in the closet may slip out like smoke through a keyhole to wreck what was so hard to rebuild. Youth will try anything once only later to realize some things just can't be unseen or undone....sorry I never write a book like this but I find your poetry to be very inspiring........xoPat Login to Reply

James Horn Date: 2/5/2017 9:42:00 PM We ere not sure where to begin; Searched for iniquity in a din; Where there was much sin; Looked night until next dawn; Arrived at din and sin was gone. If we were to begin at din, Maybe there it would have been, But Patriots rallied on a roll; Ended up winning Super Bowl. Jim Ho Ho Horn Login to Reply
