The Duel On Monday

The Duel on Monday Mark Miller © 09/01/2013 Brain woke today sound of gun shots as a dog walked in Barks from trains regain my strength for another day filed: distilled feelings Finished duel last night man named Lansky distinguished appearance hopelessness, Criticized outlook town folks skewed version of cynicism in mans defeatism Wonder why people make such horrible mistakes based on needful hates Nausea stomach aches possible life takes share of stakes in each bet made in haste Looked outside thought I saw sun say high waved look said goodbye Still thinking what we truly know of you or who or the dog next store named blue Do you have clue? Medication taken emotion still shaken-ed by memory leftover from nightmares stray Where to go or why to stay he states no other options available its Monday Spirits heading low in sadden gloomy glow outlook betrayed by dim deadened display Lost shadow left by kitchen window lost hidden hollow hole by sundown he'll show Just thoughts gone by through minds tone in status quorum with unconscious quarrel
