There Is Only One Me

This tugging and pulling must cease I can’t meet the needs of all beasts nor chase after dreams amid all of these screams so please let me be as I’m tethered and bound to this unfertile ground and cannot escape that black shaded sound a shriveling, goose bump decree of intent to take all that is me to lay it all waste just for a taste of the bullions of gold in their husks deeply rolled so I battle and bid them withdraw right up to the end my last straw ©8/19/2018 for Viv Wigley – Pick a Theme Poetry Contest
